USED: Nauticam Flash Trigger for Nikon D7100
Condition: Like New
Â
Product Overview:
This Nauticam optical flash trigger is a novel innovation that enables dSLR and mirrorless cameras to bypass the onboard flash in order and bulky sync cords to utilize the speed and reliability of fiber optic cables to control underwater strobes. Because the strobe is not relying on the pop-up flash, you can maximize the capability of the strobe and fully utilze the quick recycle rate possible on underwater strobes. It also allows for less heat build-up and longer camera battery life. TTL cannot currently be used with the flash trigger.
The Nauticam Flash Trigger uses two CR3032 batteries which power two LED trigger lights. They have a battery life of about 5000 flashes. In addition the unit locks in place on the hot-shoe and includes a LED notification so you know it is on and functioning.
**It is recommended to purchase the Nauticam Flag Trigger Prism for better light transmission when using the flash trigger.
