The default setting for Sea mode is “BluWtr>25ft”. The default setting
for Snorkel mode is “GrnWtr<25ft”.
When the camera is in Sea and Snorkel mode, the scene displayed on
the LCD display will appear red in color when you are on land. This is
normal and will appear different when you are underwater.
The Sea mode color correction feature will not work during night time
diving or depths greater than 50ft / 15m depending on the amount of
available light.
For best UW pictures, keep the camera’s flash OFF when in Sea or
Snorkel mode. If light conditions are too dark, we recommend using the
SeaLife Digital Pro Flash (item SL961 - optional accessory).
