Initial Camera Settings (before placing camera in housing)

camera and LCD screen, start each dive with a fully charged camera
battery.
- Slide ode Switch to icon.
- In FUNC./SET MENU:
Set Rec./Shooting ode to “P” Program. We recommend this setting for
underwater use to provide more creative control over the camera
settings (e.g. ISO, white balance, metering, etc.).

be used, but for more accurate and consistent colors we recommend
setting “Custom White Balance ”.

W-20 and W-30 Wide-Angle Conversion Lenses
The front of the lens port accepts the Ikelite 6420 W-20, 6430 W-30, and
other 67mm threaded wide angle or macro lenses without the need for
an adapter. An external wide angle conversion lens increases angle of
coverage so you can get closer to the subject while still fitting everything
in the frame. oderate vignetting will likely occur at widest angle camera
lens setting with these lenses. Zoom in to eliminate, or crop the image in
post processing.
Bayonet mount lenses cannot be used with this housing.
Please visit ikelite.com for additional information.
External Accessory Lenses
6430 Lens
Initial Camera Settings - continued
In Power Saving, set Auto Power Down to “Off”; Display Off to “3 min.”
Insert and Format a memory card.
- Set Flash to “On Flash always fires.”
- Enable acro mode when shooting very close subjects. If
overexposure occurs, back away from the subject and zoom in, and/or
use “-” exposure compensation.
To offer better ergonomics and easier access to the shutter button, a
control was not included for the ode Switch on top of the camera.
Therefore, it is recommended to preset the ode Switch to the " "
position before installing the camera in the housing. Photos can still
be taken if you accidentally leave it in one of the other two
non-recommended positions, however they are not ideal for underwater
Camera functions not mentioned should be set to user’s desired setting.
