It’s small enough to complement point-and-shoot or mirrorless systems, but powerful enough to illuminate wide-angle scenes. Use a single strobe for macro, or go dual for balanced lighting in all underwater conditions. Seamless TTL Performance The Ecko DS provides lightning-fast TTL exposure control, instantly adapting to your subject’s distance and movement. TTL enables more accurate exposure than manual flash, especially in fast-paced shooting environments. TTL also unlocks: Hundreds of micro-adjusted power settings for precise lighting Faster recycle times Extended battery life Lower minimum flash output than manual mode You retain full creative control by dialling in flash exposure compensation directly from your camera. TTL works alongside your camera’s Manual mode, so you can freely adjust ISO, aperture, and shutter speed while the Ecko handles flash power. The Ecko DS is compatible with Ikelite DS Link TTL Converters for Canon, Nikon, Sony, Panasonic, and Olympus, as well as the RC1 TTL Receiver for OM System, Olympus, and Panasonic. Global Power Convenience AA batteries make the Ecko DS ideal for remote dive trips. They’re easy to source and travel-friendly. For optimal performance, use high-quality rechargeable Eneloop cells.
