Brett Stanley Special Kit is a custom bundle
Underwater portrait photographer Brett Stanley is one of our Outex Ambassadors, and teaches underwater studio photography all over the world. We've built two custom bundles/kits after Brett asked us to design a strobe tethering system specifically for his students. The "Brett Stanley Special" has everything you need. This "Light Trigger Kit" is just the lighting portion that would connect to an existing camera housing you already have.
The Brett Stanley Light Trigger Kit contains the following products:
- 1 Cable Adaptors + 2 Plugs for Tether/Light Cable connection
- 1 X Radio/Speedlight Trigger Cover T1 (one opening)
- 1 X Flash Window port to seal the Cover
- 1 X Lubricant for plug/cable
- 1 X 10 meter/33 foot long PC-Synch lighting cable for use with light triggers
- 1 X Protective Lens Case for the flash window
In other words, the housing and components shown on the left-hand side of the image below, inside the squared box.
The Radio Trigger/Speedlight Cover is waterproof, and can be secured above water or float on the surface of the water to trigger additional light sources via wireless radio signals (or optically with a speedlight strobe).
The Cable Adaptor allows waterproof tethering to external devices, such as audio, video, power, or data. The cable adaptor in this kit includes the required plug you need, and lubricant to help the seal. It works with any cable that fits through the cable adaptor opening.
Both the Outex Cable Adaptor and Tripod Adaptor use the same Cover T opening and share the same dimensions, so they are interchangeable. With the Outex Cover T you can use either/both separately. If you need to use both at the same time, you would need a Cover T2 with 2 openings.
Here's a lighting example of using tethering to trigger multiple strobes above & below water during a photoshoot.
Please contact our tech support team if you have questions or would like to discuss variations or use examples.
