Description

Fibre optic cables are used to trigger your strobe, by using the camera’s flash, or a flash trigger that can be installed inside your camera’s housing. It passes a very fast flash of light to your strobe and your strobe fires.

The advantages of using a fibre optic cable vs a Synch Cord:

• No penetration of the housing so no concern of flooding
• Removable in water
• Fairly durable, difficult to damage
• No electronic bulkheads to flood
• No O-rings to maintain
• Can do TTL without the need of a converter, with compatible strobes
• Takes up very little space in your camera bag
• Relatively inexpensive

Please note that different length and brands of fibre optic cables are available in our store.
