The Jog Dial on the camera must be pressed
in to select a value or item. Once a
selection is made the Jog Dial is then
rotated to change the setting values when
shooting with the manual adjustment
modes. Viewing next/previous images is
also done by rotating the Jog Dial.
The housings Jog Dial Control has a bump on
the inside face of the control for
depressing the Jog Dial. When the white dot on the control
knob is in the 12 o’clock position the bump is aligned with the
Jog Dial. In this position you can push in and pull out on the
housing Jog Dial control to select a value or item. Once selected
the housing Jog Dial control can then be rotated to change the
setting values.
The Jog Dial on the camera is small. It will take some practice to
become proficient at operating the Jog Dial with the camera
housing control.

A diffuser and deflector are
included with the housing. The
diffuser is white transparent
plastic. The deflector is also
white but is not transparent
and has a decal on the front.
To install the diffuser or deflector
spread the port clamp at the spring
end and slide over the lens port. The
white plastic should be placed in front
of the camera flash. The port clamp
should be pushed back against the
front of the housing.

The diffuser should be installed
when using the camera's built
in flash. When shooting with
the camera's built-in flash at
approximately 2 feet (0.6 m)
or less, the lens port on the
housing may block a portion
of the light from the camera's
built-in flash, creating a shadow
in the lower left of the photo. If this occurs, zoom the lens slightly
to eliminate the shadow.
(You can test this above water)

The deflector should be installed when using an external strobe
such as the DS51 or DS125 Substrobe and EV Controller. The
deflector will redirect the camera's flash to the EV Controller
which controls the external strobes output.

The housing handles are
rubber and the tray is
aluminum. Their weight
helps to offset the buoyancy
of the housing. The complete
assembly is slightly negative
underwater for better
control. The handles have a
push button release for easily
attaching and removing
strobe arms. The tray and
handles can be removed from
the housing. To remove the
tray, the base must be
removed to gain access to
the nuts holding the tray on
the housing. Remove the 2
nuts, washers and rubber
spacers.
DO NOT remove
the bolts protruding through
the housing.
