Installing the Camera

1. Remove any lanyard attached to the camera.

2. Pull out on each housing control until it stops. This will get the controls

out of the way for installation of the camera.

3. Remove the back from the housing.

4. The mounting tray for the camera is secured to the housing back.

Position the camera on the tray. Do not extend the camera flash.

5. Using a coin or screwdriver (preferred), secure the camera with the tray

mounting bolt which threads into the camera’s tripod socket - Diagram A.

it does not fly open quickly.

Some lid snaps have a lot of

spring tension once they go over

Closing the Housing

1. Place housing face down in your lap or on a

flat surface.

2. Check to see that there is an o-ring on the

housing back and that it is clean and in its

proper location.

3. Guide the back into the housing front. The

o-ring should touch the housing all the way

around. There should be an even gap all

the way around between the housing and

the housing back.

4. Lift the lid snaps so they are extended and

place each lid snap into the corresponding

hook on the housing back.

5. To close the housing, push down on the lid

snaps until they snap into place. Lid snaps

on opposite sides of the housing should be

closed at the same time. Be sure they are

down far enough to engage the lock.

Housing

Using the Camera’s Built-in Flash

If you are shooting with the camera’s built-in flash and the camera lens

is set to the widest angle, you may need to zoom the lens slightly or a

dark area may appear in a lower corner of close-up photographs. The

lens port may block some of the light. Install the Diffuser and zoom in

slightly to eliminate any dark areas noted in your photographs (You can

test this above water). See Diffuser/Deflector Installation - page 10.

For the best results, we recommend using an external Ikelite Substrobe.

The camera’s built-in flash cannot be used with optional Wide-angle or

Accessory lenses.

Do not extend the camera flash before placing camera in housing.

Camera flash may be extended after camera is secured inside housing.

Usage

Final Check

The clear housing permits instant visual inspection of the camera and

sealing surfaces as well as complete monitoring of controls and camera

LCD screens. This housing has been factory water pressure tested to

200’ (60m).

Once the housing is closed, check the o-ring seal. Check the gap

between the housing back and the housing. It should be even all the

way around the housing.

Look through the clear plastic back at the o-ring. You should see a

darkened area where the o-ring is compressed against the housing

back. If you do not see an even black compression seal all the way

around the back, open the lid snaps, reseat the housing back and close

the lid snaps. Visually check the seal again.

Zoom Control (lever type only)

After you have used the housing's

zoom control, it must be returned to the

center position to disengage. If the

housing zoom control is pushing the

zoom lever in either direction, you may

not be able to take a picture or access

other functions. This is because the

camera is receiving a signal from the

engaged zoom control.

Diffuser Use

The diffuser should be installed when using the camera flash. When

shooting close-up photographs with the camera flash and at the camera

lens’s widest angle setting, the lens port on the housing can block a

portion of the light from the camera flash. This can result in a shadow in

a lower corner of the frame. Zoom the lens to eliminate the shadow (You

can test this above water).

Deflector Use

The deflector should be installed when using any Ikelite external strobe.

The deflector will block and redirect the camera’s flash to an optional

AF35 slave unit or EV Manual Controller, which will then control the

external strobe’s output. The deflector also stops the built-in flash from

creating backscatter in the image. Remove the diffuser before

attempting to install the deflector.

Diffuser/Deflector material

Small hole

Cut-out

Section

A diffuser and deflector are

included with the housing. The

diffuser is white transparent plastic.

The deflector is also white but is

not transparent.

To install the diffuser or deflector,

push the “Cut-out” Section into the

port groove until it stops.

Note the Small Hole. To avoid

losing the diffuser or deflector, you

can attach a fishing line or string to

this hole.
