The DS161 flash covers
the equivalent of an
18mm lens or 100
degrees w/diffuser
installed. It is the ideal
choice when using
wide angle lenses
greater than 80 degrees.
It also features a 1.5
second recycle time and
225 flashes per full
charge.

The DS51's intensity and angle of coverage make it equally suited
for macro and general photography. The strobe's wide-angle
diffuser increases the angle-of-coverage up to 80 degrees, softens
the light and helps to reduce backscatter.

For the best underwater photographic results, we recommend
adding an external DS-digital strobe connected to the housing with
a #4103.51 TTL Sync Cord and a SA-100 Ball/socket arm ((PPaaggee #
#1188)).
Ikelite DS series Substrobes are industry favorites for their warm,
even coverage and lightning fast recycle time. Being farther from
the camera lens, the optional DS Substrobe aids in reducing the
illumination of particles in the water and helps to eliminate
backscatter.

The DS161 Movie Substrobe combines all of the functionality of our
renowned DS160 with a powerful 500 lumen LED video light.
Three super-bright LEDs are arranged behind a special optical
element to provide 45 degrees angle of coverage free of hotspots.

The SA-100 system #4086.61
with its 1" diameter ball is ideal
underwater. The #9571.3
extended stem mount allows
easy attachment of the EV
controller or flashlight mount,
and drops right into the release
handle. The arm system allows
easy strobe placement from
macro close-up to wide angle.
The complete system removes
with a push of the handle
button.
