To remedy this issue, the conductor was wedged into the Aquatech pack subsequent to the camera with a opening hermetic trigger and peep mounted on the outward of the kit. As the mounted peep fired, the visual worker triggered a bang mounted peep which then dismissed a span of SP900′s. The two SP900′s were run on the Profoto 8A and were both versed with parabolic reflectors. To turn out the lighting setup, the SP900′s also used the visual worker to glow a last SP900 that was being hold underwater.
