The Epoque ES-230DS Auto Auto is a high-performance strobe that is designed to be compatible with most cameras. The automatic pre-flash function will adjust for most digital or film cameras.

For automatic exposure control the strobe has an auto sensor. Precision manual control is easy since the strobe has a variable power output dial. When using with most point & shoot digital cameras the built-in slave or a fiber optic cable will fire the strobe when the camera's on-board flash fires. For more advanced cameras with a hot shoe the strobe will fire with a 5 pin Nikonos sync cord.

Strobes are extremely important for your underwater imaging system. The ocean is one big, blue filter. As you descend, the reds and oranges quickly become muted shades of blue and gray. Firing a color corrected strobe light on your subject will bring back your subject's natural color. With a recycle time of approximately four seconds, a 80 x 115° beam angle and a guide number that varies from 3 to 21 this strobe will help you to produce stunning underwater photographs.
