Using and Cleaning the Camera Underwater
Entering the water with camera
1. Do not jump into the water with camera in your hand. Have someone hand you the
camera after you have entered the water.
2. For tips on taking pictures, see “Great Underwater Pictures Made Easy”.
After using camera underwater
1. Before entering dive boat, hand the camera to someone on the boat.
2. Make sure the sealed camera is placed in a fresh water tank available on most
dive boats. This will clean the salt water from the camera and prevents the salt
water from drying on the camera and O-ring. Never let water dry on the camera.
Salt crystals can damage the O-ring, lens and attract moisture. Dry camera with
clean soft towel after removing from fresh water tank.
3. Do not expose camera to direct sunlight - keep in a shaded area or under a dry towel.
4. It is not recommended to open the waterproof door while on the dive boat.
Allowing humid air to enter the camera may cause fogging.
5. If you must open the camera while on the dive boat, make sure you and the
camera are perfectly dry before opening the waterproof door. Do not allow the
inside of the camera to get wet.
Prepare camera for storage
1. Before storing the camera, remove batteries, SD card and keep in a clean dry area.
Make sure the camera and any accessories are clean and dry before storage.
2. Never store camera in direct sunlight or in a dark damp area.
Note – To protect your camera from a build up
of moisture, insert the desiccant capsule into
the battery compartment during storage.
