operation. There should only be a very thin, even gap of
approximately 0.15" (4mm) between the bottom of the port and
the front of the housing.
Setting Up An External Strobe
The camera's built-in flash is not usable while the camera is installed
in the housing.
Manual Strobe Exposure
External strobes may be triggered by the camera by using a
coordinating electrical sync cord. Sync cords are available for Ikelite,
INON, SEA&SEA, and Retra strobes.
TTL Strobe Exposure
The optional DL5 DS Link TTL Converter can be programmed to the
camera's specific TTL protocol and supports both first curtain and rear
curtain sync up to the camera's maximum flash sync speed. Exposure
compensation can be used added or subtracted in the camera. A push
button and indicator light on the side of the converter make it simple to
switch back and forth between TTL and manual exposure underwater.
