Initial Camera Settings ( efore placing camera in housing)
- Insert fully charged battery.
- Insert and format a SD or SDHC memory card.
- In Shooting Menu:
Set Image mode to “20m.”
Set White balance to “Auto.” If more accurate colors are desired,
we recommend setting manual white balance underwater using a white
slate or white sandy bottom. Manual white balance should be reset for
each working depth due to color absorption caused by the water. When
adding a UR-Pro color filter, reset manual white balance.
Set Continuous to “S” Single.
Set IS sensitivity to “200.”
Set AF area mode to “Center” and Autofocus Mode to “AF-S” Single AF.
Set Quick effects to “ ff.”

Set Motion Detection, AF-assist beam and Digital Zoom to “ ff.”
Set Auto off to “5 min.”
Set Blink warning to “ FF.”
- Set Flash Mode to “Fill flash .”
- Set Macro mode to “ n” when shooting close-up. If
the image is overexposed, use “-” exposure compensation
and/or back away, zoom in, and then reshoot.

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.
Slight to moderate vignetting will 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.
