The camera's LCD monitor can be viewed thru the side of the housing. Open the
LCD monitor on the camera, rotate 180°, and then press it back against the side of the
camera so that the LCD monitor is visible.
To view the image on the LCD monitor from the rear of the housing, Ikelite offers
optional External Mirror #9290.95, which adheres to the outside of the housing. Then
the LCD image can be viewed from the rear.

Install a fully charged Sony battery on the camera:
Sony NP-FP50, NP-FP70, NP-QM71
The Sony NP-FP70 and NP-QM71 batteries overhang the back of the camera tray
slightly.
Other brand batteries may not fit inside the housing. If the battery selected
overhangs the camera tray by a dimension greater than 8mm (5/16"), then the batter
is too large and will cause the housing to leak.
Make sure you have loaded an appropriate Sony disk in the camera.
