Setting Up An External Strobe

About the Built-In Flash

Due to the opaque housing design, the internal "built-in" flash can
only be used to trigger external fiber optic strobes. To shoot flash
photography underwater, an external strobe must be connected to
the housing and then triggered by a fiber optic cord. The camera flash
must be RAISED and activated in order to fire an external strobe.
We recommend attaching an external strobe for optimal color and
clarity in a wide variety of shooting situations, including daylight
photography.

Attaching a Fiber Optic Cord

1. Check the end of the fiber optic cord to ensure that it is clean and
smooth.
2. Ensure that the fiber optic cord o-ring is in place. This o-ring does
not provide waterproofing, however, it does keep the fiber optic cord
in place.
