5. Push the lid snaps towards the housing until they are flat against
the housing and the lock has engaged. Close both lid snaps at the
same time.
6. Check the o-ring seal. The o-ring should form a uniform, solid line
visible through the back of the housing.
7. Check control functions.
Attaching a Lens Port
Refer to the DLM/C lens port chart to find compatible lens ports for a
wide variety of popular wide angle, zoom, and macro lenses.
Choose a dome port for wide angle and zoom lenses. Larger diameter
domes are better for split shots (half-in, half-out of the water) and
provide sharper images.
Choose a flat port for macro lenses. Flat ports magnify the subject
underwater. Flat ports are not recommended for wide angle or zoom
lenses due to their limited field of view and risk of vignetting (dark
shadows around the edges of the image).

This housing requires a compatible DLM lens port for
waterproof operation. The housing is not waterproof without a
DLM lens port attached.
Installing the Lens and Port
1. Attach the lens to the camera.
2. If using the included zoom gear, place it over the lens with the gear
teeth towards the front of the lens. Push the zoom gear down until
it is flush with the front of the housing’s port mount.
3. Check that the port sealing surface and o-ring are clean and free
of debris.
