- Sea Arm VII Compact w/ Addtl Arm
- 2 Fiber Optic Cables w/ Strobe Mask Sets
- 10 Level Manual Control Dial
- Beam Angle of 100° x 100°
With its circular beam angle of 100 x 100° and a guide number of up to 20 it is the perfect strobe for small Point & Shoot cameras or DSLRs. Manual exposure control is easy, since the strobes have a ten-level power dial located on the back. This also makes creating a light ratio effects a snap.
The YS-02 is powered by 4-AA batteries. You can get up to 330 flashes at full power with NiMH batteries. With NiMH batteries you will get a blazing fast 1.9 second recycle time, so you will not miss all the action on the reef.
It is best to connect the strobe to the housing with the included fiber optic cables. Two Sea & Sea fiber-optic L-type Cables are included. Use them to connect the built-in sensor on the Sea & Sea strobe to the built-in flash on the camera. When the camera's internal flash fires, the cable will fire the YS-02 strobe. The L shaped connectors resist bending and have improved light conducting efficiency. The included Sea & Sea Strobe Mask Sets are used to attach the Sea & Sea fiber-optic cables to many manufacturers' underwater housings. The mask blocks the on-camera flash from exposing your subject. This prevents back-scatter. The grommet allows the cable to be attached in front of the on-camera flash so the light will trigger your external strobe.
