Diffuser and Deflector Installation
A Diffuser and Deflector are
included with the housing. The
Diffuser is white transparent
plastic. The Deflector is also white
but is not transparent.
To install the Diffuser or Deflector,
push the "Cut-out" Section over the
port and into the port groove until it
stops.
Note the Small Hole. To avoid
losing the Diffuser or Deflector, you
can attach a fishing line or string to
this hole.
Diffuser Use
The Diffuser should be installed when using the built-in camera flash
only. When shooting close-up photographs with the built-in flash and at
the camera lens's widest angle setting, the lens port on the housing can
block a portion of the light from the camera flash. This can result in a
shadow in a lower corner of the frame. Zoom the lens to eliminate any
shadow not eliminated by the Diffuser (You can test this above water).
Deflector Use
The Deflector should be installed whenever an external strobe is being
used. This will aid in eliminating backscatter. The Deflector will also
block and redirect the camera's flash to a slave unit being used to
trigger an external strobe. Remove the Diffuser before attempting to
install the Deflector.
