I am planning on getting the DS51 w/ Sync Cord for my Ikelite G10 housing. I do mostly shore diving, with almost all the dive sites requiring steep hill hikes. I want to go as compact as possible, but I kind of blew that notion when I went with the Ike case.
I noticed there are two separate arm packages which are offered with this system. There is the more standard 3944.45 and the more complex 3944.51. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these two arm systems and if the extra hundred dollars is worth spending on the more complex arm. I will be mainly using this rig for macro shooting and every once in a while some wide angle.
Portability is a concern, but if my macro options are hindered by the less complex arm system... I would rather go large, then sacrifice my shooting options.
Any help, opinions, reviews, or insight on any of these arms would be much appreciated.
Two systems in consideration:
Ikelite | 3944.45 Substrobe DS-51 w/ TTL Sync Cord and | 3944.45
Ikelite | 3944.51 Substrobe DS-51 w/ TTL Sync Cord and | 3944.51
