Initial Camera Settings
(before placing camera in housing)
- Insert fully charged battery.
- In Shooting Menu:
Set Image mode to “16m.”
Set White balance to “Auto.” If more accurate colors are desired,
we recommend using “PRE” preset manual white balance underwater
using a white slate, white sandy bottom, or even the palm of your hand.
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 ISO sensitivity to “200.”
Set AF area mode to “Center” and Autofocus Mode to “AF-S” Single AF.
Set Quick effects to “Off.
- In Setup Menu:
Set Time Zone and Date.
In Monitor Settings set Image Review to “ON.”
Set Photo VR to “On.”
Set Motion Detection, AF-assist beam and Digital Zoom to “Off.”
Set Auto off to “5 min.”
Insert and format a SD memory card.
Set Blink warning to “OFF.”
- Set Flash Mode to “Fill flash .”
- Set Macro mode to “On” when shooting close-up. If the image is
overexposed, use “-” exposure compensation and/or back away,
zoom in, and then reshoot.
* All other camera functions not mentioned should be set to the user’s
desired settings.

External Accessory Lenses
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
Moderate vignetting will likely 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.
Please visit www.ikelite.com for additional information.
