IV. Preparing your camera and SeaLife Digital Flash
Prepare your camera for use underwater. Here is a simple checklist
that is useful for most popular digital cameras and their housings.
• Insert blank memory card. It’s good practice
to regularly format the memory card. Make
sure card is blank before formatting.
• Insert freshly charged batteries. High mAh
batteries are suggested. Such as the SeaLife
NiMH AA rechargeable batteries.
• Turn camera power on
• Set SeaLife digital cameras
to External Flash
exposure mode (see camera instruction
manual for details)
For non-SeaLife camera’
s:
• Set ISO (start with 200 ISO)
• Set White Balance to AUTO
• Set camera’s Flash to ON (Turn off pre-flash, if possible)
