The camera's shutter release button operates in two stages
W
hen depressed halfway it activates the camera's exposure
meter and autofocus When depressed fully it takes the picture
This half stop of the shutter release is more easily felt when
using the camera out of the housing But with some practice
y
ou can feel the half stop when the camera is in the housing
The camera's shutter release requires only minimal pressure to
a
ctivate With the additional leverage of the housing’s shutter
release control you can put undue force on the camera's shutter
release button This can result in damage to the camera
Digital cameras have a noticeable lag time between when you
push the shutter release button and when the camera starts to
do something It is human nature to push harder when the
camera
does not instantly respond Take several pictures with
the camera
in the housing paying special attention to the feel
of the shutter release It only requires a very light touch

Ikelite provides silicone lubricant with the housing
We recommend that you use only Ikelite lubricant on Ikelite
products as some other brands may cause the o’ring to swell
and not seal properly
Use only enough lubricant to lightly cover control shafts
and o’rings Wipe off any excess lubricant with a clean cloth
Lubricant is not a sealant it is used to reduce friction
Excessive lubricant can collect sand and dirt which may
interfere with proper sealing
