Sea & Sea YS-D130R Strobe
The SEA&SEA YS-D130R is a next-generation underwater strobe designed for professionals who demand the highest standards in light control, reliability, and creative flexibility. With advanced features such as a round flash tube, a digital LCD display, and a dual power system, this strobe delivers unrivalled exposure and performance underwater. For the first time since the YS-D250, the YS-D130R features a round flash tube, producing beautifully even and natural light that wraps smoothly around your subject.
The precisely calibrated colour temperature of 5600K matches natural sunlight and remains consistent, even when using the included diffuser or dome diffuser. Capture the sparkle of underwater life with soft, round reflections that bring expression and depth to every underwater portrait.
The YS-D130R is officially certified for RC mode by OM Digital Solutions Corporation. This allows the strobe to be digitally controlled via your camera's RC flash system for exceptionally precise exposure. Enjoy seamless integration and accurate light control for a stress-free shooting experience with compatible OM SYSTEM cameras.
A brand-new digital LCD display provides real-time feedback on essential settings — battery level, flash mode, and EV value — clearly visible even in the dark or during night dives. Switch effortlessly between RC, DS-TTL, HSS, and manual mode using the mode and selection buttons. Every function is displayed digitally for quick, user-friendly operation tailored to your shooting style.
Choose between a dedicated lithium-ion battery (included with the PRO package) for fast charging times and high-speed Burst shooting, or standard AA batteries (NiMH or alkaline) for ultimate versatility. This dual system guarantees reliability and flexibility, wherever your dive takes you.
The High-Speed Sync (HSS) mode of the YS-D130R enables shooting at shutter speeds beyond the traditional sync limits (1/200s or 1/250s). Rather than a single flash burst, the strobe emits rapid pulses for even exposure — ideal for shooting in bright light or capturing fast-moving subjects with precision.
