Attaching Light Cannon 100 to Camera Housings:
For consistant lighting, many underwater videographers attach the Light Cannon 100 to their camera housings using a ball-joint arm system. Although we do not manufacture arms, we have found the system manufactured by ULTRALIGHT Control Systems to be a good choice. Check out the section on "Strobe and Video Light Adapters" in their web site.
