Thank you for purchasing an Ikelite Substrobe. Ikelite brings over 45 years of
underwater photographic and lighting experience to the strobe market. Ikelite
Substrobes are designed and built in the USA by Ikelite to suit both the professional and
the amateur photographer.
The purpose of a strobe is to illuminate the subject and assist the camera in taking vivid
pictures. The Ikelite DS1 60 Substrobe is equally suited for general and wide-angle
photography, covering up to a full 1 00° angle with a diffuser.
This strobe is everything you need for stunning photos.

Before using the Ikelite DS1 60 Substrobe, please read this owner's manual thoroughly
and retain it for future reference. Ikelite recommends becoming familiar with the
features and functions of the Ikelite DS1 60 Substrobe above water before trying the
camera and strobe in the water. And, if you have not yet done so, it is suggested that
you read your camera's owner's manual as well.

The DS1 60 Substrobe is compatible with all Ikelite TTL systems and current digital
cameras, as well as all older TTL film cameras including the Nikonos system. A variety of
sync cords, sensors, and TTL adapters are available to connect to almost any camera
system currently on the market.

The DS1 60 recycles in a quick 1 .5 sec from full discharge. When fired at a fractional
power — whether in TTL or manual mode — the strobe recycles virtually
instantaneously. Number of flashes per full charge will increase dramatically in most
cases when using in TTL mode with a compatible camera system. The powerful DS1 60 is
adjustable in 1 0 half-stop increments for precise control over your exposure when used
in manual mode.
