I got this reply in October from UW-Technics about their new TTL converter.

"Thank you for your mail.
TTL-Converter for Sony cameras are in development now. It will be ready in few months.
Of course, there will be a product version for MEIKON housings."

You might want to wait to see what they come up with. That's what I'm doing.

For the reference, the UW-Technics TTL converter for Meikon housings (they have a version for Canon cameras) replaces the moisture detector and has the moisture detection function in addition to flash triggering.

Very interesting.  I didn't know they supported the Meikon cases. Quite a comprehensive list of products.

They mention optical and electrical TTL for the Meikon case.  Does that mean they replace the single Meikon sync cable connector with one that has a window and/or pin connections?  Can they handle two-strobe operation with the optical connector?  We may have to wait to see what they provide for the a7RII and Meikon case, but I would like to know before I order Retra strobes, which I assume will work with their converter.
