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 EV Controller provides 10 manual power settings in 1/2 stop

increments for the DS51 or DS125 Substrobes. The EV Controller has

a built-in slave which can be triggered by the camera's built-in flash.
