Ikelite S200 Diffuser and Deflector cont, Lens Port, Optional Accessories Back o-ring #0109

Diffuser and Deflector cont.

A diffuser and deflector are Diffuser/Deflector material 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	Port Clamp
deflector spread the port clamp	Spring
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	Spread to Install
should be pushed back against
the front of the housing.

Diffuser

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)

Deflector

The deflector should be installed when using an external strobe such as the DS51 orDS125Substrobe and EV Controller. The deflector will redirect the camera’s flash to the EV Controller which controls the external strobes output.

Lens Port

Treat the glass in the lens port as a camera lens. After use, rinse and gently dry the lens port to avoid water spotting. To clean use a mild soap solution or lens cleaner.

Do not use alcohol or window cleaner on the Lens Port.

The Lens Port will accept (2) Wide-Angle Adapters. The Wide-
Angle Adapter #9306.80 which is requiredto mount the Inon
UWL-150AD Bayonet style wide-angle lens. The Wide-Angle
Adapter #9306.81is required to mount the #6420 Ikelite W-20
Wide-Angle Lens and other manufacturers (67mm) screw
thread style wide-angle lenses.
These lenses can be secured onto the Wide-Angle Adapter
above or below water as they are designed to have water
between the front of the port and the accessory lens. Make sure
no air bubbles are trapped between the port and the accessory
lens. Any vignetting that occurs can be eliminated by zooming
the camera lens slightly. The camera’s built-in flash cannot be
used with wide angle
lenses. The front of the	Wide-Angle Adapter
lenses are so large they
block the camera’s flash.	Wide-Angle Lens
To properly light subjects

when using a wide angle lens an external strobe should be used. Due to the wide-angle of coverage of these lenses, the DS125 Substrobe is recommended or two DS51Substrobes.

Optional Accessories Substrobe DS51Package #3944.54

The Substrobe DS51 package includes the Substrobe DS51, theEV Controller and ball socket arms. The EV Controller provides 10 manual power settings in 1/2 stop increments. An external strobe offers several advantages over using the camera’s built-in flash. External strobes move the flash away from the camera lens which helps reduce backscatter. They also expand lighting options to achieve the best lighting for different subjects. A second external digital strobe package can be added to fill the shadows and produce more realistic photographs.

The Substrobe DS51 covers the equivalent of a 28mm lens. It is the ideal choice when using only the camera lens or the camera lens with a macro accessory lens.

If an accessory wide angle lens wider than 28mm is used, the ideal lighting choice is the Substrobe DS125, which covers 100 degrees, or two Substrobe DS51’s can be used.
