        It's really amazing how many different ways there are to 
accomplish the same task in photography.   I find that the new ITTL system 
is the greatest innovation in flash photography for photographing fish, 
since the photographer has absolute control over every aspect of the 
image.  I use I TTL constantly for fish pictures and have added more than 
one remote flash in some cases.

        Lampeyes and Procatopus are some of the more difficult species to 
photograph because of their speed, and the unique reflective color of their 
bodies................. with ITTL I find I have the most 
luck   ................  experimentation and time are the ingredients, but 
at least it is easy enough to delete an image at no 
cost...............  not quite like the costs involved with slides 
...........


        I am attaching an example of off the flash ITTL .............. it 
does work,   but the usual caveat applies,  experiment and do what you are 
successful with................
