--Next generation wireless TTL function !--

    The S-2000 strobe has ultra sensitive slave sensor which is 100 times more sensitive comparing to the slave sensor of existing D-2000 strobe and successfully enables to support wireless "S-TTL Auto" flash control without fiber optics. Also the sensitivity of the slave sensor dramatically lengthens synch range of Manual flash mode. Supplied "Mirror Unit" effectively corrects master strobe light to enhance exposure control accuracy. It is easy to use wireless S-TTL Auto shooting simply attached on compatible water-proof protector via INON Shoe Base or Grip Base D4 (upcoming product). Conventional fiber optics connection is also supported to provide 2-way connection method to select either of optical cable or wireless depending on shooting circumstances.


--Unlimited expandability with optical cable system--

    The S-2000 strobe is equipped with a connector mount on the front side to catch TTL signal of the strobe. One S-2000 strobe can be linked to maximum two strobes via optical cables and operate them in "S-TTL Auto mode". This optical cable system benefits you to add "S-TTL Auto" operating strobe easily by connecting with an optical cable to pick up S-TTL control signal from your camera system. This expandability makes underwater studio with perfect lighting real.


--Natural color even with a diffuser--

    The supplied diffuser does not affects light color, which is popular among professional photographers. The color temperature of the S-2000 changes only 100K (kelvin) by this diffuser. You can have same color tone between macro shooting without diffuser and wide shooting with diffuser to widen strobe beam angle.
