I am new to Underwater Photography. I have acquired an Olympus TG-2, housing, and a Sea and Sea YS-01 strobe.
From what I have read, the YS-01 will not operate in TTL mode with the TG-2.
I have tested it in SLAVE manual mode, though, and it seems to function properly.
I have read (on this board) that I can send it in and get the firmware changed to operate in TTL, but the cost makes this impractical.
1) I am looking to acquire a 2nd strobe and was wondering if I the YS-03 would function in TTL mode with my TG-2 ?
2) I found this sheet that talks about camera compatibility with some S&S strobes, but the YS-03 is not listed. Is there one for the YS-03 ?
2) Could I then connect the YS-01 to the strobe sync output port of the YS-03 (if the YS-03 does TTL with my camera)?
3) Should I not worry and just learn to use the YS-01 with my TG-2 in manual mode (I kind of would like to have both the TTL and Manual options, though) ?
4) Is there a different strobe that is more suited for my camera (If so, I could sell the YS-01 I currently own) ?
