Use the Ikelite High Sensitivity Optical Slave Converter to trigger a remote strobe from the flash of your primary strobe. Its high sensitivity makes the converter suitable for use in environments with high ambient light or when the primary strobe is distant from the slave, and its 90° field-of-view window makes it easy to aim the converter at the primary strobe. The converter simply attaches to the remote strobe in place of a sync cord. This converter can also accept select fiber optic cables from a DSLR or mirrorless camera that has a fiber optic converter attached, for shooting at frame rates of 4 fps or faster.

Both the camera and the remote strobe must be set to manual flash settings, and the converter does not work with a pre-flash. TTL flash is not supported. Add a separately sold 3' extension cable for creative backlighting in wrecks, caves, and pool use. This setup can also be used above water for studio photography work.
