(NOTE:) 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 cannot
take a picture or access any other

Ikelite provides silicone lubricant with the housing We recommend
you use only Ikelite lubricant on Ikelite products as some other
brands may cause the o'ring to swell and not seal properly
Use only enough lubricant to lightly cover control shafts and
o'rings Wipe off any excess lubricant with a clean cloth
Lubricant is not a sealant it is used to reduce friction Excessive
lubricant can collect sand and dirt which may interfere with
proper sealing

These lenses can be secured onto the Wide Angle Adapter
above or below water as they are designed to have water
between the front of the port and the accessory lens Make sure
no air bubbles are trapped between the port and the accessory
lens Any vignetting that occurs can be eliminated by zooming
the camera lens slightly The camera's built in flash cannot be
used with wide angle
lenses The front of the
lenses are so large they
block the camera's flash
To properly light subjects
when using a wide angle
lens an external strobe
should be used Due to
the wide angle of
coverage of these lenses
the DS
