6.
Use the screwdriver included in order to tighten the
screw on the adaptor (image #18). Tighten it enough to
stabilize the fiber optic cable inside the adaptor, but
don't tighten it too strongly.
Tightening the screw too
much might damage the fiber optic cable.
7.
Once the fiber optic cable has been installed on the
Fiber Optic Cable Plate, install the Fiber Optic Cable
Plate by inserting it inside the dedicated slot on the
housing and pushing it all the way in.
8.
When installed on the housing, the Fiber Optic Cable Plate blocks the internal camera flash, so only
the external slave flash illuminates the subject. This diminishes the effects of backscatter, as well as
eliminates any shadowing effect caused by housing lens port, especially when lens accessories are
mounted on the housing.
4.
Follow the instructions in your strobe manual on how to synchronize your camera with the external
strobe. It is recommended to test the synchronization when photographing opposite a mirror. In this
case, the output of both the built-in camera flash and the strobe should be visible in the test shot
taken.
LENS ACCESSORIES
The
FP7100 Housing
lens port is compatible with a wide variety of accessory filters and lenses, such as:
BigEye Wide Angle Lenses
: Perfect for shooting seascape, divers, ship wrecks and schools of fish,
without moving further away from the subject, thereby still taking full advantage of water clarity
and artificial light sources.
SharpEye Macro Lenses
: Perfect for shooting close-up images of fish, corals, textures and more.
These macro lenses magnify the subject and enable the camera to focus on short distances for
creating super sharp images.
RedEye & PinkEye Color Correction Filters
: Used to restore the colors absorbed by the water. In
shallow depths, these filters can serve as an attractive alternative to artificial light sources.
EyeGrabber Lens Holders
: Attach to Flex or Ball & Joint arms, enabling safe, secure and easily
accessible storage for your lens accessories when not in use during the dive.
