How to use

Before entering the water, verify that the sealing surfaces and housing latches are clean and properly closed. Power on the camera and set the desired capture mode on the external controls; choose still photo or video as required. Use the viewfinder or on-screen display to frame subjects, then press the shutter or record button to capture images or footage. After the dive, rinse the housing with fresh water to remove salt and debris, then dry and store the camera according to the manufacturer’s care instructions.

Usage recommendations

Operate the camera with gloves and familiarize yourself with the control layout in shallow water before deeper dives. For best image clarity, approach subjects slowly to minimize backscatter and use natural light at shallow depths or supplemental lighting when needed.
