Q & A on the use of the PT-023
Q1 : Which digital cameras can be used with this case?
A1 : This case is designed exclusively for use with the CAMEDIA C-8080
Wide Zoom.
Q2 : What points should be observed when inserting the digital camera into
the case?
A2 : When inserting the digital camera you should pay special attention to the
following points:
(1) Check that the digital camera's battery is fully charged.
This is important because in underwater shooting you can only use the
LCD monitor for framing shots. This uses much more battery power than
the optical viewfinder.
(2) Check the number of remaining images that can fit on the memory card.
Please use a card with as much free storage space as possible so you
won't have open and close the case to replace the card.
(3) Remove the carrying strap and lens cap from the digital camera.
If the carrying strap and lens cap are not removed from the digital
camera, they could catch between the two lids of the case and prevent it
from closing properly. This could lead to water penetration.
(4) Before closing the case, check that the O-rings sit correctly in the
groove.
(5) Make sure that the buckles used for connection of the case and port and
TTL connector cap are closed firmly.
(6) Make sure that the O-rings and the case's contact surfaces are free of
foreign matter and dirt.
(7) Place the silica gel bag in the case to avoid fogging. Only use Olympus
silica gel.
(8) When loading the digital camera into this case, first attach the camera
mount to the camera and make sure that the projecting section of the
camera’s zoom lever fits into the zoom lever notch on the case. Load the
camera carefully, close the rear lid on the case and lock the buckle.
(9) Install the special balance weight on the tripod mount thread.
Q3 : What cautions must be observed when using and storing the Case?
A3 : Pay special attention to the following items.
(1) When the O-ring contact surface is pressed strongly from the outside of
the Case, or when the Case is twisted, the waterproof function may be
impaired and water leakage may be caused.
(2) When the Case is used, left or stored at the following locations, defective
operation or trouble may be caused. Always avoid such locations.
