Housing Usage
Turn the camera on and operate each of the housing controls to assure
proper functioning. Take a few test shots on land. Make sure the Flash
Diffuser is installed when using only the built-in camera flash, or install
the Flash Deflector when using external strobes, pages 13 and 14.
Zoom Control Use
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.
Using the Camera's Built-in Flash
Initially set the camera lens to the widest angle setting. You may need to
zoom the lens slightly if a dark area appears in a lower corner of
close-up photographs. The lens port may block some of the light. Install
the Diffuser, page 14, and zoom in to eliminate any dark areas noted in
your photographs (You can test this above water). Set ISO to 800 and
aperture to F3.7 when using the built-in flash only.
For the best results, we recommend using external Strobes.
The camera's built-in flash CANNOT be used with optional Wide Angle or
Accessory lenses.
Always remove the Deflector and install the Flash Diffuser when using
only the built-in flash, pages 13 and 14. Always install the Flash
Deflector when using external strobes, page 13.
