Sea & Sea YS-D2J Strobe (Yellow)

Read our complete original YS-D2 strobe review on UWPG

 

The Sea & Sea YS-D2J Underwater Strobe has been replaced by the Sea & Sea YS-D3II Underwater Strobe, or the Sea & Sea YS-D3 Duo Underwater Strobe

The NEW YS-D2J Strobe is the same great YS-D2 only with improved functionality. Sea & Sea has returned their manufacturing to Japan, to improve in quality and reliability. Look for the yellow body on the new strobes to differentiate between versions.

The Sea & Sea YS-D2J underwater strobe offers unique improvements over the original YS-D1 with features not available on any other underwater strobe. New audible confirmation provides TTL (Through the Lens) and Ready Light confirmations. In addition the rear panel now offers glowing controls for easy to read settings underwater and quick confirmation of what mode you are in.

 

The design on the rear of the strobe offers improved dials, easy to see glowing controls and an updated settings wheel for manual and TTL exposure control from previous YS strobes (the rear and is the same as the original YS-D2).

Sea & Sea YS-D2J Features (Different than YS-D1):

  • Audible Confirmation
  • Glowing Control Panel
  • New Control Knobs
  • Dual Powered Focus Light with Included Red Filters
  • Redesigned Battery Compartment
  • Improved Recycle Time (full): 1.5 seconds with Ni-Mh batteries (YS-D1 is 1.9 sec)

Glowing Rear Control Panel:

The glowing control panel gives you a visual confirmation of TTL and Ready Light functions. It also changes color based on the mode set on the strobe so you always know what mode you are shooting in.

Recommended Cords and Cables for the Sea & Sea YS-D2J:

*Note the BWP Fiber Optic cable is not a multi core cable and is not compatible with most flash triggers. For best light transmission we recommend the official Sea & Sea cables or another high end multi core cable such as the Nauticam.
