Using The Camera's Built-In Flash; Closing The Housing - Ikelite 6146.15 Instruction Manual

Using the Camera's Built-in Flash

If you are shooting with the camera's built-in flash, DO NOT attach the
hotshoe. Extend the camera flash before closing the housing. When the
camera lens is set to the widest angle setting, you may need to zoom
the lens slightly or a dark area (vignetting) may appear in a corner(s) of
your photographs. The lens port will block some of the flash. Install the
Diffuser and zoom in to eliminate any dark areas noted in your
photographs (You can test this above water). See Diffuser/Deflector
Installation - page 13. For the best results, we recommend using an
external Ikelite Strobe.
The camera's built-in flash CANNOT be used with optional Wide Angle or
Accessory lenses.

Closing the Housing

1. Place housing face down in your lap or on a
flat surface.
2. Check to see that there is an o-ring on the
housing back and that it is clean and in its
proper location.
3. Guide the back into the housing front. The
o-ring should touch the housing all the way
around. There should be an even gap all
the way around between the housing and
the housing back.
4. Lift the lid snaps so they are extended and
place each lid snap into the corresponding
hook on the housing back.
5. To close the housing, push down on the lid
snaps until they snap into place. Lid snaps
on opposite sides of the housing should be
closed at the same time. Be sure they are
down far enough to engage the lock.
