Mako Video Housing Instructions
I.
Introduction
Congratulations on your decision to
purchase the latest state of the art
underwater video housing from LMI.
The all new Mako housing for the Sony
DCR SC100 is the smallest, most
compact full featured video housing
available.
Each housing is hand finished by
LMI technicians so some beauty marks
may be apparent. However, you can
rest assured that the utmost care was
taken in the machining, assembly, and
testing of our newest line of housings.
Please take a few moments to read the enclosed instructions thoroughly. Following the steps
outlined below before every dive will help ensure proper operation of your SC100 camera in
your Mako housing. Failure to do so can jeopardize the integrity of the housing, and/or damage
your camera.
