Optical receiver Ikelite for fiber optic triggering of DS Strobes (Non-Pre-Flash)

Optical receiver Ikelite for fiber optic triggering of DS Strobes (Non-Pre-Flash)

Trigger your Ikelite DS-series strobe off any camera or strobe flash. The Optical Converter simply attaches to the strobe's electrical bulkhead in place of a sync cord connector.

The Optical Receiver (Non-Pre-Flash) supports manual exposure modes as set on the attached DS strobe. TTL exposure mode is not supported.

An individual Optical Receiver is needed for each strobe. Use of multiple strobes requires one Optical Receiver per strobe. The Optical Receiver supports all Ikelite DS strobes.

High speed shooting

If you're shooting a DSLR or mirrorless camera with Nauticam fiber optic converter and want to shoot at high frame rates (4 FPS or faster), then this Converter is the right option for you. The included fiber optic port allows the attachment of Ikelite, SEA&SEA, Olympus, and certain Nauticam fiber optic cables.

Attachment and use

This product is intended for use when triggering a strobe by an LED flash trigger or for triggering a DS strobe remotely when shooting with a mirrorless or DSLR camera.

This Receiver will not provide appropriate timing if used with a pre-flash system. The strobe will fire on the pre-flash and under-power the main flash.

An individual Converter is needed for each strobe. Use of multiple strobes requires one Converter per strobe. The Converter supports DS50, DS51, DS125, DS160 and DS161 strobes.

This product replaces the Optical Slave Converter #4403.
