Using the Fiber Optic Cable with

Nano, Remora and Sea & Sea Strobes

TheNano,RemoraandSea&Seastrobesarecapableofsynchronizingwiththe

camera'sinternalflashwithoutafiberopticcableinmostdivingconditions.They

featureaslavesensorthattriggersthestrobetofirealongwiththecamera'sinternal

flash,aslongasthestrobeandthecameraarepositionedonthesameaxis.



Thefiberopticcable,however,ensuresthebestsynchronizationbetweenthe

camera'sinternalflashandtheexternalstrobeinallanglesandinvariousdiving

conditions.

Step1‐AttachingtheFiberOpticCabletotheNano,RemoraorSea&SeaStrobe



a) Thefiberopticcableconsistsoftwoends:Oneisattachedtoawhiteplastic

fitting(flatwhiteplasticattheendofthecablewithAllenscrewinside),and

theotherisloose(figureA).

Inserttheexposedendofthefiberopticcable(theendwithoutthefitting)

intothesmallholeoftheadaptorunituntilthefiberopticcablereachesthe

endoftheadaptor.

b) Usethetoolyouhavereceivedwithyourfiberopticcablekitinorderto

tightenthescrewontheadaptor.Tightenitenoughtostabilizethefiber

opticcableinsidetheadaptor,butdon'ttightenittoostrongly.Tightening

thescrewtoomuchmightdamagethefiberopticcable.



c) Carefullybutfirmlyinserttheblackadaptorinsidetheproperfittinginfront

ofthestrobe'sslavesensor.

•Sea&SeaStrobes‐Inserttheadaptorintothebottomgrommetonthe

strobe,rightbeneaththestrobe'sbulb,sothattheadaptor'sscrew

doesn'tgetinitsway.Insertitallthewaytotheend,anddonotforce

onceyouencounteranyresistance(figureB).

•NanoFlash‐Installtheblackandclearplasticdiffusercoveronthe

NanoFlashHousing,ifitisn'talreadyassembled.Inserttheblack

adaptorinsidethelowerrightgrommet(theonewiththewiderhole)of

theblackdiffusercover,sothattheadaptor'sscrewdoesn'tgetinits

way.Insertitallthewaytotheend,anddonotforceonceyou

encounteranyresistance(figureC).

•RemoraFlash‐Inserttheadaptorintotheslavesensorcap,whichis

positionedatthebottomoftheflash,sothattheadaptor’sscrew

doesn'tgetinitsway.Insertitallthewaytotheend,anddonotforce

onceyouencounteranyresistance(figureD).

Step2–AttachingtheFiberOpticCabletotheCameraHousing



a) Theotherendofthefiberopticcableattachestotheoutsideofthecamera

housing‐oppositethecamera'sinternalflash‐byusingbothsidesofthe

Velcrostripincludedinthekit.Thewhiteplasticfittingnormallycomeswith

theVelcrotapeattachedandthereforeyouareonlyrequiredtoapplythe

othersideoftheVelcrostriponthehousingtoreceiveit(figuresEandF).If

yourhousingfeaturesabuilt‐inflashdiffuser,theVelcrostripshouldbe

attachedbeneathit,directlytothehousing.Ifpossible,placetheVelcrostrip

betweenthebuiltinflashdiffuserandthehousing,positionedoppositethe

internalflashofthecamera.

b) Itispreferabletototallyblockouttheinternalflashofthecameraafter

attachingthecamerasideofthecablebyputtingblackelectricaltapeover

thefiberopticconnectorattachedtothehousingcase.Thiseffectively

achievestwothings:itdiminishestheeffectsofbackscatter,aswellas

avoidinganyshadowingeffectwhileusingwideangleormacroaccessory

lenses.Removingthebuilt‐inflashdiffuserwillhavenoaffectonlighting.

c) FollowtheinstructionsonyourNano,RemoraorSea&Seastrobemanualin

ordertosynchronizeyourcamerawiththeexternalstrobe.Pleasenotethat

differentdigitalcamerashavedifferentpre‐flashandflashcharacteristics,

whicharecompatiblewithdifferentstrobemodes.Itisalwaysagoodideato

testthesynchronizationwhenphotographingoppositeamirror.Inthiscase

bothflashunits(thecameraandtheslave)shouldbeilluminatedwhen

viewingtheresultsofthetestshottaken.

Note:

Insomecases,afterusingthefiberopticcablefrequentlyorforalongperiod,you

mightencounteradecreaseinperformance.Youcaneasilysolvethisproblemby

cutting1cm/0.3inchoffthefiberopticcable'sends,usingasharptooland

performingaverystraightangledcut.Thiswayyouremoveanywornends,and

exposeanewportionofthecable.
