TRT ships the o-TURTLE 45 TTL trigger for Olympus PT housings
TRT-Electronics has designed a new version of their TTL trigger for Olympus MILC cameras when housed in Olympus PT series housings. These have an angled space designed to accommodate Olympus strobes, which the new o-TURTLE mimics. The o-TURTLE 45’s performance is identical to that of the original o-TURTLE, bar that it has a smaller battery.
The o-TURTLE 45 is available now, priced at €429.
Press release
TRT-Electronics announce the new TTL trigger for Olympus MILC systems which fits into the Olympus PT series housings
Our company released the new o-TURTLE for Olympus MILC Systems a few weeks ago. We received feedback from our customers that the trigger didn’t fit into the Olympus PT series housings wherein Olympus strobes are typically installed into the hotshoe to control the external strobes.
Hence we designed a new trigger, the o-TURTLE 45, to solve this problem. It has the same capabilities as the original o-TURTLE trigger with a smaller lipo battery (120 mAh). It works with Olympus OM-D E-PL3, E-M5, E-M5II, E-M10II, E-M1, E-M1II cameras and different underwater strobes (Sea&Sea YS-D1, YS-D2 and Inon Z240 types 3/4). You can also use the o-TURTLE 45 with the included LEDB OARD to control the strobes via a fiber optic cable.
