Olympus 5060 has TTL

[jormax]

I finally got my Iklite housing for the Olympus 5060. I am using the Ikelite D125 strobe. With this camera and housing I am getting true TTL, and got several decent shots the first time in the water. (Drysuit and gloves made it a bit more difficult)

Since the exposure thing is taken care of, now I need to learn how to get clear close up shots. If someone could point me to where is shows how to post photos on this board I will put some up for comments and suggestions.

Look at the 4th post in this forum, titled "Posting photos within your thread".
It might help.

Thanks Ike, I had seen that piece while waiting for my housing. It did help raise my spirits

Here is one of my 5060/Ike housing shots. It was taken with everything on full auto, zoomed all the way out, almost like a point and shoot camera.

Well actually he tested TTL for the 5050. But it sounds like it works really well.

well atleast you got your 5060 housing, I missed out on the first shipment and waiting for the 2nd one. My trip is in like 3 weeks.

I hope to get mine before then if not guess I am out of luck, Hoping to get the Dome Port Ikelite is making for it at same time.

I know your pain. I leave Friday for Cayman Brac, I got my housing last Friday. Too close for me. Still waiting for the Pelican 1550 to show up so I can pack it all in...
