We suggest that you read this instruction booklet thoroughly
before use. If you are new to underwater photography, be sure
to read the General and Photo Tips sections.
We also suggest that you read the camera manual thoroughly
to have a full understanding of where each camera control is
located and what function each control provides.

The EV-Controller used with Ikelite DS Substrobes has two user
settings. One setting is for strobe selection, the other is for
pre-flash or non pre-flash. TThhiiss ccaammeerraa uusseess pprree--ffllaasshh, thus the
EV-Controller should be set to the pre-flash position when used
with this camera.
The camera does not emit a pre-flash when used in the “M”
manual mode. If using the “M” manual mode, set the
EV-controller to non-pre-flash.
