SL 960 Conversion to Digital Pre-Flash?

[divingandcruising]

I'm having a hard time believing that you can't convert a SL 960 to Digital. I just received as a gift an Intova IC-600 camera, and due to the pre flash my strobe won't fire correctly. I'm currently talking with a camera guy about adding a 'circuit' to my existing flash to ignore the pre-flash, but I'm just wondering if there is a quicker fix to the solution than that? This is just an optical triggered circuit and doesn't anyone make new optical sensors with a delay circuit embedded?

Anyways just looking for other insight besides spending more money for a new SL960D.

Thanks
JC
