Camera does not
take a picture
- Install a fully charged battery.
- A housing control is engaging a camera function
and will not allow the shutter to fire.

to properly focus. Add a focusing light or strobe
with a built-in focusing light to your system.
- Select a center focus point in your camera menu.
Problem
Solution
Fogging occurs on
the Lens Port
t- Humid air is trapped inside the housing.
The camera produces heat and may condense
any trapped moisture forming fog on the lens port.
Close the housing in an air-conditioned room or
vehicle, or in front of an air-conditioner.
- The housing should not be in direct sunlight for an
extended period of time.
- Purchase desiccant packs from a local camera
store and place one or two packs in your housing
before each day of diving.
- If moisture or water droplets are present around
the controls or sealing areas, return the housing
to Ikelite for evaluation.
- Clean the main housing o-ring, port o-ring, and
sealing surfaces of the housing.
- Make sure the camera is mounted properly on the
camera tray and housing controls are out of the
way .
Housing is hard to
close
Pictures are too blue
or too green
- Use custom (manual) white balance if available.
- Add an external strobe.
- Move in closer to your subject when taking a
picture.
