This camera can be used to a depth of
approximately 10m (33 ft.). Picture sharpness
and flash range are affected by water clarity.
Non-flash exposures taken underwater tend
to appear bluish. For best results, use the
flash and take pictures within 2m (6.6 ft.)
of your subject.
After returning to the surface, clean
and dry the lens cover-glass before
taking additional pictures.

• The ready lamp blinks rapidly and the shutter locks when the subject is closer than 40cm.
• The ready lamp blinks slowly when the camera cannot determine the focus distance. Your subject may
be out of focus.
When your subject is closer than 1m (3.3 ft.), align the top of
your image with the close-framing guides, using focus hold if
