he Conversion Circuitry is automatically disabled when used
with a Non-Ikelite or Non-DS Substrobe. These Substrobes can be
used in their manual mode utilizing any power settings provided
on the Substrobe.
UUssiinngg IIkkeelliittee DDSS DDiiggiittaall SSttrroobbeess
For the best underwater photographic results, we recommend
adding an external DS-digital strobe connected to the housing with
a #4103.51 TTL Sync Cord and a SA-100 Ball/socket arm
((PPaaggee ##1111))
.
Ikelite DS series Substrobes are industry favorites for their warm,
even coverage and lightning fast recycle time. Being farther from
the camera lens, the optional DS Substrobe aids in reducing the
illumination of particles in the water and helps to eliminate
backscatter. When used in conjunction with the EV-Controller, the
DS51 Mode switch is set to the TTL setting and the EV-Controller
provides ten power settings in half-stop increments.

SSuubbssttrroobbee DDSS116600
The Substrobe DS160 covers
the equivalent of an 18mm
lens or 100 degrees
w/diffuser installed. It is the
ideal choice when using
accessory wide angle lenses
greater than 28mm. It also
features a 1.5 second recycle
time and 225 flashes per full
charge.

The SA-100 system #4086.61
with its 1" diameter ball is ideal
underwater. The #9571.3
extended stem mount allows
easy attachment of the EV
controller or flashlight mount,
and drops right into the release
handle. Aim does not change
when changing the aim of the
strobe. The arm system allows
easy strobe placement from
macro close-up to wide angle
without changing aim of the
Sensor. The complete system
removes with a push of the
handle button.

The EV-Controller used with Ikelite DS Substrobes has two user
settings. One setting is for strobe selection, the other is for
pre-flash or non pre-flash.
TThhiiss ccaammeerraa uusseess pprree--ffllaasshh
, thus the
EV-Controller should be set to the pre-flash position when used
with this camera as a slave. If hard-wired to the housing, set the
EV-Controller to Non pre-flash.

NNOOTTEE::
Do not attach the housing hotshoe to the camera when
using the EV Manual Controller. If attached, the camera flash
may not fire, which is necessary to trigger the external strobe.

be used to illuminate subjects underwater. A flash
deflector (supplied) can be installed over the back of the
housing port next to the housing exterior. The deflector will
deflect the camera flash when using an EV Manual Controller.
The deflector will redirect the camera’s flash to the EV
Controller which controls the external strobe output. To attach,
push the deflector over the back of the housing port, until the
deflector clips into position, blocking the camera flash.
NNOOTTEE::
The deflector is

needed when an Ikelite DS digital
strobe is connected (hard-wired) directly to the housing
(recommended).

For the best photographic results underwater, we recommend
using Ikelite External Strobes. This housing has Conversion
Circuitry built into the housing back, eliminating the need for
an EV Controller. The Conversion Circuitry provides real Canon
TTL flash when used with an Ikelite DS Digital substrobe(s) and
the #4103.51 single or #4103.52 dual sync cord, connected
directly to the housing.
