Important Notices

»This housing requires a compatible DLM lens port for

waterproof operation. The housing is not waterproof without a

DLM lens port attached.

»Do not pull the shutter trigger without a camera installed. You

may accidentally detach or damage the control spring.

»Never leave a housing in a rinse tank, even if it is the only

system in the tank. Accidental damage may occur when the

user walks away from a housing while it is in the rinse tank.

»Do not use alcohol, cleaning agents, spray lubricants, Rain-X,

or other solvents on the housing or lens port. Use of an

incompatible chemical compound can damage the plastic and

o-rings, and may result in leaking.

»If you will be using the system in strong surf it is

recommended to draw a vacuum on the housing using the

optional vacuum kit (sold separately).

Tray Mounts

This housing features two 1/4-20 threaded tray mounts on the bottom

of the housing. The spacing between the tray mounts is 3” (76.2 mm).

Optional tray with handles and mounting hardware are sold separately.

It is recommended to detach and thoroughly rinse the tray mounts,

tray, and mounting hardware, with fresh water routinely during

continuous use and prior to storage.

Accessory Ports

This housing features a spare accessory port which may be used

for the attachment of optional accessories. This port accepts ttings

designed for a 1/2” through or 1/2-20 threaded hole.

The optional Vacuum Kit # 47012 may be installed in place of the side

accessory port. A hand pump with gauge allows you to draw a vacuum

on the house to simulate water pressure and check for leaks prior to

entering the water.

Visit ikelite.com for an updated list of compatible products.

»Do not remove or loosen the accessory port plug unless you

are installing a compatible accessory.

Setting Up Your Camera

Pre-Installation Checklist

1. Insert a fully charged camera battery.

2. Insert a properly formatted memory card.

3. Remove any attached lanyard or neck strap.

Camera Settings

• Set EVF Auto Switch to “Off.”

• Set X-Sync. to “1/250” when using an external strobe.

• Set Flash mode to “Fill in” when using an external strobe.

“Slow2” rear-curtain sync may alternatively be used when using a

compatible DL3 DS Link TTL converter.

Exposure Settings

Refer to the Camera Settings Cheat Sheets in the Photo School

section of our website for recommendations on exposure settings for a

wide variety of shooting situations:

https://www.ikelite.com/blogs/cheat-sheets

Power Save

It is recommended to set the Sleep and Auto Power Off settings to

the shortest intervals that makes sense for your shooting.

Instead of turning the camera off and on to conserve battery, the

camera will automatically sleep after the pre-set interval. To wake the

camera, simply perform an operation such as pressing the shutter

button halfway down.

Back Button Focus

Back button focus takes some adjustment to get used to but can be

very valuable in a variety of shooting scenarios. To set up your camera

for back button focus, set the Custom Menu Setting A1 > AEL/AFL

to “mode3.”

The AEL/AFL button is conveniently accessed by a thumb lever on the

side of the housing. Instead of half-pressing the shutter to obtain focus

and lock focus, press the AEL/AFL button.

For super macro photography, you can use this technique instead of

a manual focus gear. Press and hold AEL/AFL to lock focus at the

minimum focusing distance of your lens. Then move slightly in or out

until the subject is in focus.
