INTRODUCTION How It Works - A Very Unique Camera Land & Sea® The SeaLife Reefmaster Digital Land & Sea camera allows you to choose between Land Mode for taking land pictures and Sea Mode for taking underwater pictures. This is essential for taking great pictures and achieving the perfect picture exposure. Sea Mode: If the camera is set to Sea Mode and used inside the Underwater Camera Housing, the camera is programmed to automatically find the best exposure control combination in an underwater environment.
E Land Mode: If you are taking land pictures, set the camera to Land Mode. Now the camera is automatically programmed to take great land pictures. The camera evaluates light conditions through the lens. If it’s too dark, the camera uses the built-in flash to fire a pre-flash (to test the picture quality) and a primary flash for taking a properly exposed picture. If you like, you can override the camera’s fully automatic functions.

Underwater Housing Instructions Important: Please carefully read and understand these instructions before using camera and housing underwater. SeaLife Reefmaster Dive Easy Housing (SL113) • Depth rated and tested to 200ft. (60M) • Fully rubbered armored for water and shock protection • Includes Sportsfinder. • Soft rubber grips. • Optical glass lens port. E Front view of DC250 housing • Stainless steel hardware - corrosion proof. • 3-button controls ( power, shutter and LCD on/off).
MUST DO for underwater housing: 1. Read these instructions before using the underwater housing. 2. Do not exceed the depth rating printed on the lens port of the housing. 3. Keep main O-Ring perfectly clean. • Clean main O-ring with cleaning brush provided before every use. Do not remove O-ring. Do not grease O-Ring. • Store camera and housing only after careful cleaning and when totally dry. • Housing uses one large O-ring at housing sealing lid. Never use housing without O-ring in place.
Open view of housing The housing uses one O-ring to form a waterproof seal Contact SeaLife Service Center if O-ring is damaged and requires replacement. E Important: Carefully inspect o-ring for salt, sand, hair, cuts, tears or other damage. Clean o-ring before every use. Replace o-ring if damaged.
Main O-ring and keeping a waterproof seal The SeaLife housing uses one O-ring to form a waterproof seal. Every housing is tested for quality and a waterproof seal. It is your responsibility to maintain the housing and ensure it remains waterproof. Our research and testing shows that 99% of leaks are the result of not cleaning or caring for the O-ring. Warranty does not cover a water-damaged camera unless it is clearly determined that a manufacturing defect caused the leak.

How to set-up the Underwater Housing E Set up camera 1. Insert 2 fully charged Ni-MH batteries (size AA, capacity at least 1800 mAh). See page 67 for more battery information. Make sure you insert the batteries with the correct + and – polarity. 2. Clean camera lens with dry, clean cotton cloth. 3. Make sure camera focus lens is set to normal distance. DO NOT SET TO MACRO. 4. Remove camera strap since this may prevent the camera from correctly seating itself inside the housing. 5. Set camera to Sea mode.
12. Do not allow any water droplets to get inside housing. This will cause the inside of the housing to fog. 13. Close housing lid tightly. Make sure there are no obstructions that prevent the housing from closing. Make sure lid is tightly pressed into housing, ( see picture). 14. Close housing latch. Make sure the lid is pressed flat and evenly against the housing body. The housing may leak if the lid is not flat against the housing Close housing lid tightly, then close latch. when closed.
Using and cleaning the underwater housing and camera Entering the water with housing 1. Do not enter water with camera in your hand. Have someone hand you the camera after you have entered the water. 2. See “Great Pictures Made Easy” on page 65. E After using housing underwater 1. Before entering dive boat, hand housing to someone on the boat. 2. Make sure the sealed housing is placed in a fresh water tank available on most dive boats.
Great Pictures Made Easy Taking underwater pictures is much different that taking land pictures. Here are the most important tips to taking great pictures underwater: 1. Crystal Clear water. Crystal Clear water is essential for good underwater pictures. Remember the human eye can see more detail than a camera. In other words, your eyes see the water as being clearer than it actually is. Floating particles like algae, and silt cause low visibility. Avoid stirring up the sandy bottom with your fins.
5.Take several pictures of the same subject. Use different distances and angles. (Allow about 10 seconds between shots for the flash to re-charge). Study and compare the good and bad pictures and you will soon be a master. Never touch any sea creatures. Consult your dive master about approaching dangerous creatures or structures. 6. Use SeaLife Macro and Wide Angle Lenses for dramatic close-ups.
8. The quick review feature allows you to playback pictures without removing the camera from the housing. Press and hold the LCD button for 2 seconds. The last image will appear. Press the LCD button to scroll to the next picture. Press and hold the LCD button for 2 seconds to exit. Battery Selection Guide: It is important to use only AA batteries designed for high drain electronic devices.
Battery Life E We have tested the following batteries under normal and extreme operating conditions. The following operating times are averages and can vary depending on age of battery, temperature and other factors. Normal conditions (designed to simulate operating conditions when scuba diving): 1. Turn camera on, take a test picture. Set to Sea Mode. Put in housing, close housing. 2. 90 minutes later: Turn power on. Take three pictures on land.
