Initial Camera Settings
(before placing camera in housing)
- Insert a fully charged battery.
- Set Shooting Mode to “Auto Mode.”
- In
Shooting Menu
:
Set Image mode to “16m.”
Set White balance to “Auto.” Always use AUTO white balance (AWB)
when using a strobe/flash. When recording video or using a UR-Pro
color filter without strobes, AWB can still be used, but for more accurate
and consistent colors we recommend setting Manual white balance.
Manual white balance should be reset for each working depth due to
color absorption caused by the water.
Set Continuous to “S” Single.
Set ISO sensitivity to “200.”
Set AF area mode to “Center” and Autofocus Mode to “AF-S” Single AF.
- In
Setup Menu
:
Set Time Zone and Date.
In Monitor Settings set Image Review to “ON.”
Set Photo VR to “On.”
Set AF-assist beam and Digital Zoom to “Off.”
Set Auto off to “5 min.”
Insert and format a memory card.
- Set Flash Mode to “Fill flash .”
- Set Macro mode to “On” when shooting close-up. If the image is
overexposed, use “-” exposure compensation and/or back away, zoom
in, and then reshoot.
