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.

- Set the mode dial to “M” manual or “Av” aperture priority.

In “M” mode, set shutter speed to 1/60th second or 1/180th 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. With a

DS-series strobe attached, shutter speed will vary from 1/60th to 1/180th

second. For fast moving subjects, set shutter speed to “1/180th second

fixed” in the External Speedlite Control camera menu.

- Set Image quality to JPE “L”, or other desired setting.

- Set Image review to “4 seconds.”

- Set External Speedlight control to “Flash firing - Enable.”

- Set ISO speed to “100” and White Balance to Auto “AWB.”

- Set Live View Shoot to “Enable.”

- Set Metering Mode to “Center-weighted” andAF Mode to “One-Shot AF.”

- Set AF Area to “Manual Selection.” Choose the Center Point.

- Set AF Method to “Quick Mode” and Auto Power Off to “8 min.”

- Set E-TTL II meter. to “Evaluative.”

Note: This housing is designed for use with an external strobe. The

camera’s internal flash cannot be used while in the housing.

Setting the Conversion Circuitry Strobe ID Switch

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 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 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.

On the bottom of the housing camera 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.

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.

Using the Conversion Circuitry (Set DS Substrobe 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 Substrobe 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

Substrobe to TTL mode. This will allow the strobe power to be varied

in manual mode.

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. 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.
