Optical connection
Account for the separate cable
The Solis supports TTL and manual flash through its optical setup. This selected offer excludes the fiber-optic cable, so plan that connection separately.
TTL and manual flash in the Solis package
The Sea & Sea YS-01 Solis is an underwater strobe with TTL and manual exposure controls. It uses four AA batteries and a fiber-optic connection. The selected retailer listing explicitly excludes the fiber-optic cable.
Who this suits
It is a candidate for a photographer who wants an optically triggered strobe and a choice between automatic TTL and manual flash output. Check the camera, housing and optical trigger arrangement for the intended mode rather than assuming that a TTL label guarantees compatibility with every camera.
Plan the connection as well as the strobe
The connection is fiber optic only in the retained specification. Because the cable is excluded here, this listing is not a complete optical-link kit. Match the cable ends and the camera or housing arrangement before ordering the rest of the setup.
Power, mounting and depth rating
The strobe takes four AA batteries. Backscatter’s technical description also lists a diffuser, a YS mount and a 75 m depth rating. Those specifications help identify the model, while the selected retailer’s contents still need to be checked if an offer adds a mount or cable package.
What to compare
Match YS-01 Solis rather than another YS-01-generation listing. The exposure modes, AA power and optical-only connection are the useful buying distinctions. Keep the excluded cable visible when comparing the cost of a working setup.
What divers ask about the Sea & Sea YS-01 Solis (Does Not Include Fiber Optic Cable) before buying
Is the fiber-optic cable included?
No. The selected retailer listing explicitly says the cable is not included.
Choose the correct separate connection for the camera and housing.
Does the Solis have manual exposure control?
Yes. TTL and manual control are listed.
TTL use still requires a compatible camera and triggering arrangement.
What batteries does it use?
The technical source specifies four AA batteries.
Do not infer a battery-and-charger bundle from that power requirement.
What depth rating is listed?
The technical source lists 75 m / 250 ft.
This identifies the strobe rating rather than the contents of an accessory bundle.
