Flash for Sony RX-100II - Ikelite Housing?

[Duarte]

Hello,

How do I know if a flash is compatible with my Ikelite Housing for the Sony RX-100 II ?

Can someone recommend me some on a budget?

Thanks!

Flash that work well in TTL Inon D2000/Z240
In manual anything else, don't go below YS-01/02 in terms of power

Well I have this system for my 2 video lights:

The Ikelite tray:

With 2x BTS Locline Flex Arm

How do I attach a flash to this system? Does it mean I can only take 1 video light and 1 flash? Would this flash work? Backscatter :: Underwater photo :: lighting Thanks!

Locline arms are not really the way forward for strobes to be honest and the Ikelite housing does not have a cold shoe so now you are faced with the issues of going cheap in the first place. Maybe time to upgrade to ball and clamp?

Oh well... really didn't wanted to have to upgrade my arms... But I can still put the strobe into the Lockline arm right? I would just have to sacrifice one video light? What would be the difference between these 2: Backscatter :: Underwater photo :: lighting Backscatter :: Underwater photo :: lighting :: strobes

You need 3/4" arms as the smaller ones don't hold the weight
