This product has been water pressure tested at the factory and is depth

rated to 200 ft (60m). Thoroughly inspect and immerse the empty

housing completely in water before installing a camera. If any fogging

occurs or droplets of water enter the housing, do not install a camera.

Clean the housing main o-ring and retest to make sure that it is

watertight. Refer to the Troubleshooting section, page 23.

We suggest that you read this instruction booklet thoroughly before use

to have a full understanding of where each camera control is located,

and what function each control provides. Please read your camera

manual thoroughly to have a full understanding of each camera function.

If you are new to underwater photography, be sure to read the Photo

Tips section.

Due to the power required to operate the camera and LCD screen, start

each dive with a fully charged camera battery.

On the bottom of the internal housing tray is a switch for setting the DS

Substrobe ID. Set the switch to the Model of DS Substrobe being used.

When using dual strobes of different models such as a DS51 and a

DS161, set the ID switch to DS51 or the smaller strobe.

Housing Conversion Circuitry

This housing contains Ikelite designed and patented Conversion

Circuitry. Once attached, turn the strobe on first before turning on the

camera.

When used with Ikelite DS Substrobes the Conversion Circuitry provides

real Nikon iTTL flash exposure with over and underexposure

compensation from +1 1/3 to - 1 1/3 f-stops in 1/3 stop increments.

The Conversion Circuitry also offers Manual exposure control with 3

f-stops of underexposure control in 1/2 stop increments.

The Conversion Circuitry is powered by the Ikelite DS Substrobe when

connected to the housing with the 4103.51 single or 4103.52 dual sync

cord. When using two strobes with the dual sync cord, the primary

strobe connected to the cord without the red band, must be turned on to

power the Conversion Circuitry. Always keep both strobes connected to

your dual sync cord underwater. Do not exchange your secondary

strobe for a dust cap which may not be waterproof.

Using the Conversion Circuitry (Set DS Substrobe to TTL mode)

-Mode and Compensation Dial (see illustration below)

Note that the TTL compensation values are located in the yellow band.

Manual compensation values are located in the black band. Rotate the

Dial to switch between TTL and Manual Modes.

-TTL Mode compensation values are indicated in the yellow band. Place

the Setting Indicator to TTL for N Compensation. Rotate the Dial either

direction to select +/- compensation. Place the Setting Indicator to the

desired compensation value. Note that in TTL, compensation values are

in 1/3 f-stops.

-Manual Mode compensation values are indicated in the black band.

Rotate the Dial to place the Setting Indicator to the desired compensation

value. Note that in Manual Mode, compensation values are in 1/2 f-stops

from (F) full power to -3 f-stops.

Set DS Substrobe to TTL mode. This will allow the strobe power to

be varied in manual mode.

Using Non-Ikelite or Ikelite Non-DS Substrobes

(Substrobe 50, 100A, 200, 400) with this Housing

The Conversion Circuitry is automatically disabled when used with a

Non-Ikelite or Non-DS Substrobe. These Substrobes can be used in their

manual mode utilizing any power settings provided on the Substrobe.

DS50 and DS125 Substrobe Compatibility

- Older DS50 Substrobes with Serial Number below 63,850 can NOT be

updated to operate correctly with the latest TTL conversion circuitry.

Older DS50 Substrobes with Serial Number between 63,850 and 69,999

require upgrade of electronics to operate. Cost of update depends on

strobe circuitry. Strobe must be returned to Ikelite for evaluation to

provide an estimate of upgrade cost.

- Older DS125 Substrobes with Serial Number below 2,500 can NOT be

updated to operate correctly with the latest TTL conversion circuitry.

Older DS125 SubStrobes with Serial Number between 2,500 and 4,999

require upgrade of electronics to operate. Cost of update depends on

strobe circuitry. Strobe must be returned to Ikelite for evaluation to

provide an estimate of upgrade cost.

Attaching the Flash Connection for External Strobes

When using an external strobe,

connect the housing hotshoe

connector. Slide the connector into

the hotshoe mount on the camera

from the back of the camera as

shown. Slide the connector

forward until it stops. Make sure

the hotshoe is all the way

forward in the camera mount to

assure a good connection. Due to

limited clearance between the

camera hotshoe mount and the

housing back, the hotshoe

connector should be attached

before the camera is secured with

the mounting bolt.
