Notes on using the Ikelite lens adapters:
The Ikelite adapter fits over the lens port on the housing and is held in place by means of three screws with knurled heads. The screws protrude into a groove on the port, so that the adapter cannot fall off accidentally. The screws prevent free rotation of the adapter when fully engaged, but the adapter can still be rotated with moderate force (i.e., it becomes stiff to rotate, but it is not locked in position). Hence, when an accessory lens is fitted or removed underwater, it is necessary to hold the adapter to prevent it from rotating (particularly in the case of the Inon bayonet types). This can be done by putting fingers in the way of the screw-heads.
When a lens with an anti-flare hood is fitted, the adapter should be rotated so that the hood does not cut-off the view when the camera zoom is at its most wide-angle setting.
Even when the anti-flare hood is correctly aligned, some lens and camera combinations may vignette at the maximum-wide setting (i.e, there may be darkening at the corners of the picture). In that case, zoom-in until the vignetting disappears.
After entering the water, an accessory lens should be removed and replaced to ensure that the space between the lens and the port is filled with clear water (no bubbles).
