Allot of useful modeling tips in this. Appreciated. Sad to see the flash hit the water. With fresh water best you can do is let it dry for as many days as possible. If comfortable open it up to expose the board and expedite the process. If it's salt water you need to open it up the same day or asap and dip it in fresh water, then let it dry. Good move getting the battery out right away.

Much sense here! Like you I put one on every lens. Why? because if working in areas where I might need to clean the lens I can grab a hankie from my pocket and use it! If I damage the filter (never have but one worry less) they are relatively cheap to replace. I use the impregnated Zeiss lens wipes which are inexpensive, efficient and a few in the camera bag weigh nothing. As to filter quality I think the two biggest differences are in the mounting ring (The best use brass but most aluminium which can be sometimes difficult to unscrew though I hardly ever need to) and the quality of the coating. As to the glass itself, well it needs to be optically without flaw and plane parallel. There are few manufacturers in the world who can make such glass like Schott Tiffen and a certain Japanese company. They supply to both the filter makers whose products are either expensive or cheap and who get the same glass! Just ask yourself when you last found online a comparative review of protective filters? . Nuff said!
@AnthonyToglife18 күн бұрын
I appreciate you taking the time to comment @garethwilliams976! I use B+W filters which have brass rings (I found that to be important years ago when I first got into photography) and their glass has been solid for me. At the end of the day, I'll do what I want regardless of other people's opinions lol. Sounds like you do the same.

Last week trying to save my AD300 from falling in the sea, I ran to it holding Sony A9III, however I didn’t make it and everything was in the sea! AD300 died immediately, however the Sony A9iii with the X3 trigger and Sigma 50mm F/1.2 survived although being in the sea for around 0.3 second! I have a video of that moment in a video from last week on my channel! Cheers from Japan!

I would have thought if the capacitors got any water on them and arced, then the flash would be toast. Must have got lucky and missed that component
@AnthonyToglife21 күн бұрын
I tend to agree @photo2000 however with this type of flash, there isn't really a continuous power draw except for the LCD. The capacitor likely wouldn't be pulling any power if the flash wasn't actively being fired, so I don't think an arc would occur. That being said, I'm not going to do an independent test to find out LOL.
