modes. When using one or two Digital Pro Flashes,
but NOT the Photo-Video Light, set the Scene mode
to Ext Flash Auto. The camera automatically adjusts
the image exposure and white balance resulting in
sharp, colorful underwater pictures. The camera is pre-
programmed to account for the additional flash power
resulting in optimal image exposure and brightness.
The camera’s flash will always fire, which automatically
triggers the Digital Pro Flash through the optical cable
connection. For advanced underwater photographers
who want to manually control the aperture and shutter
speed, set the scene mode to Ext Flash MNL. Refer to
the Digital Pro Flash instruction manual for more details
on connecting and operating the flash.
[ ] – Ext Light mode. When using one or two
Photo-Video Lights, set the Scene mode to Ext
Light. The camera automatically adjusts the image
exposure and white balance resulting in sharp, colorful
underwater pictures and video. The camera’s default
setting is set to Flash Off, which is recommended
to prevent backscatter. Refer to the Photo-video
instruction manual for more details on connecting and
operating the light.
[ ] – Ext Flash + Light mode. When using one
Digital Pro Flash in combination with one Photo-Video
Light, set the Scene mode to Ext Flash+Light. This
mode functions just like Ext Flash Auto mode, but uses
a different white balance for video mode
