Ikelite DS-200, SX110 IS, DS-80, DS-50, DS-125 instruction manual Diffuser, Optional Accessories

Substrobe DS160

On

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 area 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 orDS160Substrobe with an EV Controller. The deflector will redirect the camera’s flash to the EV Controller which controls the external DS strobe’s output.

Lens Port and Accessory Lenses

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.

Optional Accessories

DS Digital Strobes

For the best underwater photographic results, we recommend adding an external DS-digital strobe and EV-controller, connected to the housing with a SA-100 Ball/socket arm.

Ikelite DS series Substrobes are industry favorites for their warm, even coverage and lightning fast recycle time. Being farther from the camera lens, the optional DS Substrobe aids in reducing the illumination of particles in the water and helps to eliminate backscatter.

When used in conjunction with the EV-Controller, the DS51 Mode switch is set to the TTL setting and the EV-Controller provides ten power settings in half-stop increments.

Substrobe DS51

The Substrobe DS51covers the equivalent of a 28mm lens. It is the ideal choice when using only the camera lens with no accessory wide angle lenses attached.

The Housing Lens Port is threaded to accept 67mm accessory lenses. These lenses are NOT recommended for use with this housing due to extreme vignetting

SA-100 Ball/Socket Arm The SA-100 system #4086.61 with its 1" diameter ball is ideal underwater. The #9571.3 extended stem mount allows easy attachment of the EV-controller or flashlight
