3. Installing the digital camera

Check the digital camera.

Check the digital camera before loading it in the Case.

Battery Confirmation

Underwater shooting can reduce battery life because the picture has to be checked on the LCD monitor 
before and after shooting. Make sure that you have sufficient remaining battery capacity before use.

Check the remaining number of pictures

Check that the image storage medium has enough room for the number of pictures you want to take.

Remove the strap and lens cap from the camera.

Be sure that the strap, and/or lens cap are not attached to the digital camera. If any of these items are 
attached, be sure to remove them.

CAUTION:

In order to avoid missing photo opportunities due to an exhausted battery, you should always have a fully 
charged battery before each dive.

CAUTION:

• If the digital camera is loaded without removing the strap and lens cap, the Case cannot be sealed properly 

and may leak.

• Handle the digital camera carefully when removing the strap and lens cap. Olympus does not assume any 

liability for damage incurred if the camera is dropped.

Remove the eyecup from the digital 

camera.

The Case allows you compose your shots in the 
pickup viewfinder or the LCD monitor.
To improve the view of the pickup viewfinder, 
remove the camera’s eyecup before loading it in the 
Case.
The eyecup removed from the camera can be 
stored in the camera table.
For details, see “How to attach the camera table to 
the digital camera” (P. 19) o
f this manual.

CAUTION:

In case the digital camera is loaded in the Case without removing the eyecup and the rear lid of the Case is 
closed, the pickup viewfinder pops out.
Remove the eyecup, then push in the pickup viewfinder.
