Ikelite ALL - Manual

Congratulations on your purchase of an Ikelite Digital Camera

Housing. Ikelite has over 45 years of experience in the underwater

photographic and lighting market. Our products are designed and

built in the USA by Ikelite for both the professional and amateur

photographer.

The clear housing permits instant visual inspection of the camera

and all sealing surfaces as well as complete monitoring of controls

and camera LCD screens.

Ikelite Digital Housings are slightly negative in salt water for

stability. This housing has been water pressure tested at the

factory to 200' (60m).

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.

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.

1. Depress opposing latch buttons simultaneously to open the

housing. Once the latch is unlocked, rotate the latch handle

away from the housing until it stops. This motion will also

break the housing o-ring seal and open the housing back

slightly. NOTE: Latch must be rotated to the fully open position

to assure easy opening of the back. Rotate the hinged back to

it’s open position.
