IMPORTANT HOUSING INFORMATION

- Your housing is setup to accept the Sony a7R II and a7S II camera models.

If you are using the a7 II model, remove the existing camera tray marked

a7R II and replace it with the camera tray marked a7 II. Also, remove the

adhesive backing from the thin foam frame (included in box) and place the

frame over the existing foam frame on the housing back. Lastly, remove the

washer from under the knob for the Mode Dial control, page 7.

- Due to differences in lens and control placement, this housing is only

compatible with the newer “Mark II” version Alpha 7 series cameras.

This housing requires the addition of a compatible Lens Port for waterproof

operation. Lens Port not included. Go to ikelite.com for Lens Port options.

IMPORTANT HOUSING INFORMATION - continued

- This housing features an integrated TTL circuit that is automatically

powering the circuitry. Exposure compensation in TTL mode is supported

using the camera’s built-in control. For manual ash operation, move the

switch on the back of the housing Tray Mount to the left or “M” position, as

noted above the switch.

SEA&SEA, INON, and Nikonos strobes must be used in manual exposure

modes only.

- We recommend turning the camera on BEFORE placing it in the housing.

To turn the camera on AFTER it is placed in the housing, lift and rotate the

housing ON/OFF knob, so the White Dot is in the 9 o’clock position from

the back of the housing. Push the knob back down and rotate clockwise to

turn on. The White Dot will line up with the 2 small dots on the top of the

housing as the camera is activated. DO NOT continue rotating knob once

the camera has been activated; doing so could damage the camera switch.

To turn the camera off AFTER it is placed in the housing, lift and rotate the

housing ON/OFF knob so the White Dot is in the 1 o’clock position. Push

the knob back down and rotate counter clockwise to turn camera off. The

White Dot will line up with the 2 small dots on the top of the housing as

the camera is being deactivated. DO NOT continue rotating knob once the

camera has been deactivated; doing so could damage the camera switch.

- The external housing tray may be easily removed for transport, cleaning or

storage. Use a at head screwdriver to remove the 2 screws at the base of

the housing to detach the tray. We recommend removal and rinsing after

each dive trip to avoid corrosion associated with saltwater.

Clean the main housing o-ring and retest to make sure that the housing is

watertight. Refer to the Troubleshooting section, page 32.

Please read your camera manual thoroughly to have a full understanding of

each camera function.

If you are new to underwater photography, be sure to read the Photo Tips

HOUSING and CAMERA SETUP STEPS

Step 1 - Initial Camera Settings

- Insert a fully charged battery.

- Set Mode Dial to “A” Aperture Priority. Manually adjust aperture setting

to achieve the best exposure for your shooting conditions. The shutter

speed will be locked at 1/30th-1/60th second. If a faster shutter speed is

desired or you are NOT using an external strobe, set Mode Dial to “M”

Manual mode to manually adjust both aperture and shutter speed settings.

- In MENU settings:

Set Image Size to highest preferred setting.

Set Drive Mode to “Single Shooting” and Flash Mode to “Fill-ash.”

Set Red Eye Reduction to “Off.”

Set Focus Mode to “Single-shot AF” and Focus Area to “Center.”

Set AF Illuminator to “Off” and ISO to “200.”

Set Metering Mode to “Center” and White Balance to “Auto AWB.” Always

use auto white balance (AWB) when using a strobe/ash. When recording

video or still photos without a strobe, AWB can still be used, but for more

accurate and consistent colors we recommend setting Custom manual

white balance for each working depth. Custom manual white balance is also

recommended when using a color lter and no ash.

Set DRO/Auto HDR, Center Lock-on AF & Smile/Face Detect to “OFF.”

Set SteadyShot to “On” and Steadyshot Adjust. to “Auto.”

- In CUSTOM MENU settings,

Set Auto Review to “5 Sec.”

Set Eye-Start AF to “Off.”

Set FINDER/MONITOR to “Monitor”. This option turns off eye-piece

automation and must be set, otherwise, the camera will sense the housing

back and shut off the LCD screen transferring picture view to the optical

viewnder.

Step 1 - Initial Camera Settings - continued

- In SETUP MENU settings:

Set Pwr Save Start Time to “5 min.”
