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.

Initial Camera Setup (before placing camera in housing)
- Insert a fully charged battery.
- Set the mode dial to “M” manual or “Av” aperture priority.
In “M” mode, set shutter speed to 1/60th second or 1/160th second for
fast moving subjects. Maximum shutter speed of 1/250th second
recommended to allow full power flashes from strobes. Set aperture to
F8 for general photography or F22 for macro photography (close-ups).
In “A” mode, adjust aperture as necessary for good exposure.
Set Image quality to JPEG L “20M”, or other desired setting.
- Set VF Grid Display to “Disable.”
- Set Image review to “8 seconds.”
- In Flash Control Menu:
Set Flash Firing to “Enable” and E-TTL II Meter to “Evaluative.”
Set Flash sync. speed in AV mode to “1/250-1/60sec. auto.”
- Set Red-eye reduction to “Disable” and Mirror Lock-up to “OFF.”
- Set ISO speed to “200” and Min. Shutter Spd. to “1/60.”
- Set Auto Lighting Optimizer to “Disable” and White Balance to “AWB.”
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.
- Set Live View Shoot to “Enable” and AF Method to “Quick Mode.”
- Insert and Format a high capacity SD or SD C memory card.
- Set Auto Power Off to “8 min.”
- Set Date/Time/Zone.
- Set AF operation to “ONE S OT.”
- Set AF Area to “Manual Select.:Zone AF.”
- Set Metering Mode to “Center-weighted average.”
- Set other camera functions not listed to desired settings.
ote: This housing is designed for use with an external strobe. The
camera’s internal flash cannot be used while in the housing. Make sure
the camera flash is CLOSED before placing camera in housing.
Opening the Housing
Lid Snaps have a Lock. To open, push Lid Snap
Lock forward and lift as shown. Keep pressure
on the Lid Snap so it does not fly open quickly.
Lid Snaps have a lot of spring tension once they
go over center, so have a firm grip on the Lid
Snap. Lid Snaps may be opened one at a time.

Housing Conversion Circuitry
This housing contains Ikelite designed Conversion Circuitry. Once
attached, turn the strobe on first before turning on the camera.
When used with Ikelite DS Strobes the Conversion Circuitry provides
real TTL flash exposure with over and underexposure compensation
from +2 to -2 f-stops in 1/2 stop increments.
The Conversion Circuitry also offers Manual exposure control with 3 1/2
f-stops of underexposure control in 1/2 stop increments.
The Conversion Circuitry is powered by the Ikelite DS Strobe 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.
Setting the Conversion Circuitry Strobe ID Switch
On the bottom of the housing camera tray is a
switch for setting the DS Strobe ID. Set the
switch to the Model of DS Strobe 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.

Using on-Ikelite or Ikelite on-DS Strobes
(Strobe 50, 100A, 200, 400) with this Housing
The Conversion Circuitry is automatically disabled when used with a
Non-Ikelite or Non-DS Strobe. These Strobes can be used in their manual
mode utilizing any power settings provided on the Strobe.
Using the Conversion Circuitry (Set DS Strobe to TTL mode)
-Mode and Compensation Buttons
The Conversion Circuitry default is set to TTL. To switch between TTL and
Manual Modes, depress both Mode Buttons at the same time and keep
them depressed until you see the desired Yellow LED Mode illuminate.
-TTL Mode (indicated when the yellow LED directly below TTL is
illuminated). TTL Mode is the default setting. When the DS Strobe is
powered ON, the yellow TTL LED will illuminate. None of the Red LEDs
will illuminate. This indicates that no (+) plus or (-) minus compensation is
selected. Depress the Mode buttons to select +/- compensation. Note that
the TTL +/- compensation values are in the yellow bar with the heading
TTL.
-Manual Mode (indicated when the yellow LED directly below the M is
illuminated). When the Manual Mode is selected, the Red LED directly
below the F (full power) will illuminate. Note that the Manual minus (-)
compensation values are in the black bar with the heading M. Set DS
Strobe to TTL mode. This will allow the strobe power to be varied in
manual mode.

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, but can be attached afterward.

DS50 and DS125 Strobe Compatibility
- Older DS50 Strobes with Serial Number below 63,850 can NOT be
updated to operate correctly with the latest TTL conversion circuitry.
Older DS50 Strobes 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 Strobes with Serial Number below 2,500 can NOT be
updated to operate correctly with the latest TTL conversion circuitry.
Older DS125 Strobes 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.
