Hello all..
I just received my housing for the Fuji Finepix F420zoom cam and the Epoque ES-150DS flash with Epoque Fiber-Connector (velcro in front of flash). I really need your advise regarding the settings on the cam and strobe for my underwater photos...
The strobe has a selection button with: Guide No: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15. What is the Guide number ? What should I use?
Moreover what settings should I have in my cam? Auto flash ? Manual ? EV ? How the optical sensor can know that I use an extra flash ? How I avoid overlighted photos? etc etc
I know that practice is what I should do but as I have a nice liveaboard trip coming next week I really want to gain from your experience in order to know at least some basics!
Even if you don't have the same cam I am sure that you can help me!

Thanks in advance,
