cable connectors can now be connected to the battery by attaching

the image being transmitted from the camera. The camera can now
be unwrapped from the cable spool and deployed into the water to
the desired depth.
The depth of field (distance the camera can see underwater)
depends on the clarity of the water and available light at the depth
the camera is used. In clear water, the depth of field can be many
feet but in cloudy or muddy water the depth of view can be reduced
to only a few inches due to particles suspended in the water.

madebyutilizingtheon-screendisplay.Theseadjustmentscan

defaults for normal viewing.) To access the settings menu,

be displayed on the screen (note: if you wait too long before
