Problem Solution
Fogging occurs on
the Lens Port - Humid air is trapped inside the housing.
The camera produces heat and may condense
any trapped moisture forming fog on the lens port.
Close the housing in an air-conditioned room or
vehicle, or in front of an air-conditioner.
- The housing should not be in direct sunlight for an
extended period of time.
- Purchase desiccant packs from a local camera
store. Place one or two packs in your housing
before each day of diving.
- If water droplets or moisture is present around the
controls or sealing areas, return the housing to
Ikelite for evaluation.
- Clean the main housing o-ring and sealing
surface of the housing, see page 9.
Image is over- or
under-exposed, or a
corner of the image
is dark - Check that the camera flash is firing when taking
a picture. Camera flash should be forced “on.”
- Make sure the deflector is installed when you are
using an external strobe.
- Make sure the diffuser is installed when you are
NOT using an external strobe. Zoom in slightly to
eliminate any dark corners.
- When using an external strobe, make sure it is
turned on, set properly, and it’s battery is charged.
- Change camera shutter speed and/or aperture.
- Move closer to or further away from the subject.
