Getting Started

Illustrated below are the locations of Titan’s features, ports, and functions. Take time to familiarize yourself with the housing.

First Time Use

All Light and Motion housings are pressure tested prior to shipping. However, there could be unseen damage from shipping. A test dive without the camera in the housing is highly recommended.

After the initial dive with just the housing, make the following checks.

1.Dry off housing exterior.

2.Remove the Rear Plate and visually inspect for moisture.

3.Reach inside the housing and trace a finger around all view ports and mating surfaces.

4.If any water is detected, contact the housing reseller or the Light & Motion service department.

Camera Preparation

1.Remove the camera’s strap from the camera.

2.Attach the desired lens for use.

3.Remove the camera’s lens cap.

4.Remove the rubber accessory cap from the bottom of the camera (Fig. 1). The Titan’s camera tray has a pocket for the cap to be stored when the camera is on the tray (Fig3).

5.Remove the hotshoe cover.

6.Place battery board onto camera battery (Read next section “Battery Board”).

7.Install a fully charged EN-EL3 camera battery.

8.Install a media card.We recommend at least a 1GB size card.

Battery Board

The Titan D100’s Battery Board is the component that allows the Titan’s “Focus” button (located on the right handle) to function. No other housing functions are affected. If you choose not to use the Battery Board, you can use the mechanical shutter for auto-focus.

You received two battery boards with your Titan D100 housing. One is a spare and can be stored inside the Titan’s rear plate (Fig. 7 & 8).

1.Remove the non-stick paper covering the Battery Board’s adhesive side.

2.Orient the Battery Board to the contours of the battery and press into place (Fig 6).

The Battery Board adhesive is meant to be strong enough to hold the board onto the battery, yet easy to remove when attaching the battery to a charger.

Eventually the Battery Board’s adhesive will exhaust. When this occurs, you can simply “drop-in” the board into the camera’s battery compartment.You may need to guide the board into place.

You can also contact Light & Motion to purchase replacement battery boards. Replacment Battery Boards are p/n # 825-0188.

D100 specifications

The Light & Motion D100 is an exceptional dive light designed to meet the needs of underwater enthusiasts, offering a blend of durability, performance, and versatility. This powerful dive light is particularly favored by scuba divers, underwater photographers, and videographers who require high-quality illumination in the challenging underwater environment.

One of the standout features of the D100 is its impressive output of up to 1000 lumens, providing bright and even light that penetrates the depths of the ocean. The beam angle of 80 degrees ensures that divers can illuminate a wide area, making it ideal for exploring coral reefs or wrecks where peripheral visibility is essential.

The D100 is built with robust construction, featuring an aluminum body that is lightweight yet highly durable. This ensures that the light can withstand the rigors of marine environments, including resistance to corrosion from saltwater. The anodized finish adds an extra layer of protection against scratches and impacts, further enhancing its longevity.

In terms of battery technology, the D100 is equipped with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that guarantees hours of use on a single charge. The intelligent battery management system allows for real-time tracking of battery life, providing divers with peace of mind by ensuring they have adequate light throughout their dive. The light also features a simple user interface with three brightness levels, enabling divers to easily adjust the output based on their specific needs.

The Light & Motion D100 is also designed to minimize environmental impact. It uses LED technology, which not only extends the life of the light but also consumes less energy compared to traditional lighting solutions. This efficiency translates to fewer battery changes and less waste over time.

Moreover, the D100 is designed for versatility, with a built-in mounting system that allows it to be easily attached to various camera systems and dive gear. This makes it an excellent choice for underwater photographers who require flexible lighting options.

In conclusion, the Light & Motion D100 blends innovative technology with exceptional performance, making it a top choice for divers and underwater photographers alike. With its robust construction, impressive lumen output, and efficient battery system, the D100 delivers reliable illumination for every underwater adventure. Whether you are exploring marine life or capturing stunning underwater images, the D100 stands out as a reliable companion in the depths.
