Specifications

NOTES:

TTL Flash is NOT available when camera is in “M” Manual mode. There

is no TTL flash even with Canon's own flash in the camera "M" mode.

Manual power settings can be selected with the multi-control button on

the back of the camera. The strobe should still be left in TTL to take

advantage of this feature.

Leave the housing hotshoe disconnected when using an EV Manual

Controller. If using an EV controller in “M” Manual mode, set the EV

controller to “non-Pre-flash.” Please read page 26 for additional

information when using an EV Manual Controller.

When multiple exposure (continuous shooting) mode is used, the

external flash will not fire. This is normal and also happens with Canon

external speedlights.

Initial Camera Setup (before placing camera in housing)

- Insert a fully charged battery. Due to the power required to operate the

camera and LCD screen, start each dive with a fully charged camera

battery.

- Insert and format a memory card.

- Set camera date and time.

- Set ISO to “80.”

- Set camera mode dial to “Av” Aperture priority. In Aperture Priority mode

"Av" the shutter speed should automatically go to 1/60 second.

- Set Flash to “On” (lightning bolt in LCD).

- For General photography, set aperture to f3.5.

- For Macro photography, set aperture to f8.0.

- Set White Balance (AWB) to “Auto.”

- Set Image Size to “L” and compression to “S” Superfine.

- Set Metering to “Center-Weighted Average.”

- In the camera menu set the “ND” Filter to “Cancel.”

Attach External Tray and Handle to Housing

Using a 9/16” open end or socket wrench, tighten the External Tray to the

Housing Base using the two 3/8-16 Nuts supplied in the accessory package;

tighten Nuts firmly.

1. Pull out on each housing control until it stops. This will get the controls

out of the way for installation of the camera.

2. Remove the back from the housing.

3. Remove camera lanyard from camera if attached.

4. The mounting tray for the camera is secured to the housing back.

Position the camera on the tray.

5. Slide the housing Hotshoe Connector into the Camera Hotshoe Mount

your strobes directly to the housing, leave the housing hotshoe

disconnected from the camera. You will also need to install the Flash

Deflector (supplied) into the external port groove to block and deflect the

camera flash to the EV controller - page 13.
