Attaching the supplied accessories

Attaching the supplied wide-conversion lens

As objects appear 1/4 closer and
therefore larger, the wide-conversion
lens is recommended when you want to
take pictures of wide areas. Note
however, that objects will appear
smaller.

Note
This supplied wide-conversion lens is
to be used only underwater.

Using the supplied sunshade

The supplied sunshade reduces glare
from the LCD monitor.

Attaching the supplied colour filter

When using the supplied colour filter,
attach it on top of the wide-conversion
lens.
Water absorbs light, especially red
light, so that objects in deep water are
seen bluish. The colour of objects is
affected by the clarity of the water.
To record in natural colour, use the
supplied colour filter.

Attach the wide-conversion lens until it
fits firmly.

Underwater recording

Before diving

Check that the equipment operates correctly and that there is no water leakage at a
depth of about one meter (3 feet) before you dive deeper.

Take care not to expose the equipment to salty air. Do not drop water on the equipment.

Do not open the marine pack underwater or on the beach. Preparations such as
installing and checking the equipment should be done in a place with low humidity and
no salty air.

Check the following points again before you dive.

s Be sure to fully charge both the battery pack of the marine pack and the

camcorder.

• We recommend you use battery packs with a large capacity and prepare a spare
battery.

s Be sure that a video tape has enough left.
s Check that there are no scratches or cracks on the O-ring.
s Make sure there is no dust, sand, or hair between the front shell and the rear shell.
s Be sure that the lithium battery has enough power.

• If the remaining battery capacity
is enough, when you press the
ZOOM, PHOTO, or START/
STOP button, the Flash lamp
lights up. Check this indicator as
a criterion. If the flash lamp does
not light, exchange for a new
one. We suggest that you
prepare spare ones.

Conditions of underwater recording

Recording underwater is different from recording on land because it is affected by
the clarity, depth of the water, and the light conditions. The following are hints
for good recording underwater.

Best time for recording

The best recording time is from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. When the sun is at its highest,
optimum results can be obtained.
To record is in dark places as the sun does not reach or at night, use a powerful
underwater video light.

Subject size underwater

Since the refractive index underwater is higher than that in air, objects appear 1/4
closer, and therefore larger. This phenomenon affects the lens on the camcorder as well
as human the eye. Using the supplied wide-conversion lens is recommended.

Operate the camera with slow and stable motions

When recording, keep your body stable.
An unstable shot will be magnified on the TV screen.

Move the camcorder as slowly as possible. Since most of the objects underwater move,
you can record a good shot without moving the camcorder too much.

Note on recording underwater

Be sure to follow the safety rules for diving, such as diving period and depth.

Water leakage

The marine pack is designed to be
waterproof, however if water happens
to leak in ,the LEAK lamp (yellow)
flashes.
In such a case, remove the marine pack
from the water as soon as possible,
keeping it horizontal. Be sure to surface
following the safety rules for diving.

Dry the marine pack with a soft cloth
and then open it.
To switch off the lamp, disconnect the remote control cable.
Check the cause of the leak.

If the camcorder is wet, take it to the nearest Sony dealer immediately.
We recommend you purchase property damage insurance for underwater materials in
case of emergency.

LEAK lamp (yellow)

After using

• After recording in the sea, submerge the marine pack in tap water or fresh water for
about 30-60 minutes before undoing the latches to completely remove any salt from
the marine pack unit, filter, and wide-conversion lens.

• When your camcorder is to be used near the sea for a long time, we recommend that
it be checked periodically by a Sony dealer.

Note on the O-ring

The O-ring assures the waterproof function of the marine pack. To maintain
waterproof integrity, use it correctly.

Incorrect handling may cause water to
leak in.

Check the O-ring

Before using the marine pack each time, check that there are no scratches or cracks on
the O-ring and prevent dust from collection on it as it could allow water to leak in.

• Remove the O-ring from the groove with your finger. Do not use a metal tool or a
tool with a sharp point.

• Put the O-ring in the groove evenly. Never twist it.

• Check that there are no cracks or dust on the O-ring, then coat it slightly with the
supplied grease using your finger. This will prevent wear.

• While applying the grease, recheck for cracks or dust. Never use cloth or paper to
apply grease because the fibers may cling.

If you run out of grease (2-115-921-01) you can purchase it from your nearest
Sony Service Center.

Remove any dust, sand, or hair from the O-ring

Make sure there is no dust, sand, or hair on the O-ring, in the groove, or on the surface
of the marine pack where the O-ring touches. If there is, clean it completely, or the O­ring and the surface of the marine pack may be damaged and water may leak in.

O-ring

20-GB

Do not pinch the O-ring with the marine pack

When joining the front and rear shells, take care not to pinch the O-ring between the
front and rear shells. If this happens, not only will the O-ring be damaged, but water
may leak in.

Useful life of the O-ring

Depending upon the maintenance and the length of use, we recommend changing the
O-ring every one or two years.

The O-ring (3-977-362-01) can be replaced at your nearest Sony Service Center.

When you store the O-ring

Store a reserve O-ring in its package in a cool dry place. Do not store in very hot, cold,
or humid place. Be careful not to crimp it or to place any heavy weight on it.

Caution on handling

After using

The metal parts will rust and the movement of the operation switches will be impaired
if you leave salt water on the marine pack. If sea water enters through scratches in the
coating, the salt can corrode the metal parts of the marine pack unit and cause the
coating to peel off. After recording in the sea, submerge the marine pack in tap water or
fresh water for about 30 minutes before undoing the buckles to completely remove any
salt from the marine pack unit, filter, and wide-conversion lens.
After washing, wipe any water from the inside of the marine pack and the loaded video
camcorder with a soft dry cloth.
* Always follow the above precautions when you use the marine pack.
When you open the marine pack or exchange the battery pack of the grip, take care that
no water drips from your wet suit or hair.
Do not leave the marine pack under direct sunlight for a long period of time, otherwise
the temperature in the marine pack may rise and the equipment inside may be
damaged. If you cannot avoid leaving the marine pack under direct sunlight, be sure to
cover the marine pack with a towel or other protection.

When you store the marine pack

Coat the O-ring slightly with the supplied grease, and put it in the groove correctly. Join
the front and rear shells then put it in a cool and dry place without fastening the
buckles.

Avoid storing the marine pack in a very hot, cold, or humid place, or together with
naphthalene or camphor, as these conditions might damage the unit.

On transportation

When transporting the marine pack, be sure to remove your camcorder from it.
Otherwise this might damage the unit.

Note

When you use the supplied carrying
bag, attach the supplied carrying belt
and adjust the length of the belt.

Avoid rough handling or a shock. We
recommend covering the marine pack
with a towel or other protection.
