A diffuser and deflector are
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 deflector
spread the port clamp 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 should be pushed back
against the front of the housing.

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 blocks a portion of the light from the camera’s built-in
flash, creating a shadow in the lower left of the photo. To
eliminate the shadow zoom the lens between 1/3 and 1/2 of its
full telephoto range.

The deflector should be installed when using an external strobe
such as the DS51 or DS125 Substrobe and EV Controller. The
deflector will redirect the camera’s flash to the EV Controller
which controls the external strobes output.

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 required to mount the Inon
UWL-150AD Bayonet style wide-angle lens. The Wide-Angle
Adapter 9306.81 is required to mount the following Wide-Angle
Lenses, Inon UWL-100, Sea&Sea #58070 and Ep0que DCL-20
screw thread (67mm) 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
lenses are so large they
block the camera’s flash.
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
DS51 Substrobes.
