SEA&SEA YS-01 Solis Underwater Strobe
The YS-01, the best-selling strobe in its class has been redesigned, boasting improved performance.
Features
Equipped with the same DS-TTL II circuitry as superior Sea&sea’s high-end models
The DS-TTL II circuitry helps emit the correct amount of light automatically based upon light intensity from the camera’s onboard flash. The strobe allows you to adjust light intensity stronger or weaker from programed standard exposure. With this function, even an inexperienced underwater photographer can instinctively control the desired amount of light. Example: If you are using two YS-01 Solis strobes, one on the right and the other on the left, and there is white soft coral to the right of your photographic subject, you can just delicately lessen light intensity from the strobe on the right alone by just turning the light level control to minus. With the improved circuitry, you can realize desired lighting for all your underwater images in a breeze.
Increased light intensity from the target light
Compared with the predecessor model, lighting intensity of the YS-01 Solis’ target light is 40% stronger increasing the visibility of the light axis has improved helps you understand position of the strobe position more accurately.
Superior light distribution and wide beam angle
Because of exclusively designed prism lens, the YS-01 Solis realizes a wide beam angle of 100°x 100° with ideal flat light distribution even when the accessory diffuser is not attached. With the diffuser, light will soften and beam angle will increase to 110° x 110°
Ideal flat and circular light distribution. One top light. TG5 + WCL06x

How long will it take for my order to arrive after I make payment?
That depends on where you live and whether we have an item in stock or not. While we do have many items in stock, we don't carry everything. (For example, we do not stock most housings or ports as there are just too many!) If you need an item in a hurry, it's a good idea to contact us and find out if your item is in stock, or if we can get it in a hurry - we often can!
If we have it in stock, we can usually send it out as soon as we receive payment (1-3 business days), or you can pick it up. If an item is not in stock, we'll need to order it from our suppliers, which means it can take 1-2 weeks to arrive at your door (usually closer to a week).
Sometimes delivery can take longer, if our manufacturers are out of stock, for example, but this is unusual - we let customers know as soon as possible if something like this happens.
