Manual Focusing - Ikelite 6812.61 Instruction Manual

Installing Zoom Clamp/Sleeve on Type 2 Lenses
Before installing the lens port and checking operation, make sure the
teeth on the Gear Sleeve mesh with the teeth on the housing Drive Gear,
figure G. When the port is installed, pages 19 & 20, it will lock the Gear
Sleeve in place. After installing the port, rotate the housing Zoom Control
Knob to see that the Gear Sleeve is properly rotating the Lens Zoom ring.

Manual Focusing

Ikelite DSLR housings are designed for auto-focus DSLR
cameras and lenses. Manual focusing is not recommended. In some
cases, if you desire to manually focus a lens, the zoom clamp must be
moved onto the lens Manual Focus Ring and you must use the housing
zoom control knob to manually focus. This will result in loss of zoom
capability.
