About the Lens

Featuring a new are-earth lens element, the W-30 provides improved

permeability, clarity and brightness. Specifically designed for digital

cameras with 28mm focal length and wider, the W-30 is compatible with

Ikelite Video and Digital Still housings using 67mm threaded ports.

Supplied Accessories

- Front Cap

- ear Cap

- Pouch

- Lens Cloth

- Silicone Lubricant

1. Makes sure the threads of the lens and the housing port are clean of

dirt, sand, or other debris.

2. Apply a small amount of silicone grease to the port threads on the

housing and to the threads at the rear of the W-20 Lens.

3. Facing the front of the housing, gently screw the lens clockwise

and straight into the port of the housing until it securely fastens.

Do not overtighten or use excessive force when connecting the

lens to the housing port. If the W-30 lens is overtightened, accidental

removal of the housing port can occur when disconnecting the W-30.

This lens can be safely connected and disconnected from the housing

while underwater. For correct operation of the optical system, make sure

that the space between the housing port and the rear of the W-30 lens is

filled with clean water and free of air bubbles.

Ikelite Compact and ULT Acompact housings with a 2.2” port diameter

require a 9306.81 adaptor to attach this lens.

Att ching the Lens to Housing

M inten nce nd Stor ge

After using the W-30 lens in water (especially salt water), rinse with fresh

tap water and dry with a soft non-abrasive cloth. The lens surface has an

anti-reflective coating. Wipe the surface of the lens gently with the soft

non-abrasive cloth to prevent debris buildup that can cause spotting and

deterioration of the coating.

C ution: Do not attempt to dry the lens by exposing it to heat from a hair

dryer, radiator, etc. This will damage the lens.

Store the lens in a cool, dry place with the front and rear lens caps fitted.

Do not store the lens attached to a housing port. Temperature changes

can make the lens hard to remove from the port and cause accidental

removal of the port.

T king Photos with the Lens

1. After entering the water, check that all of the air has escaped from the gap

between the lens and the housing port, and that no air bubbles are present.

This step is important and can affect the camera’s ability to focus. If air

bubbles are present it may be necessary to remove and reinstall the lens

underwater.

2. Zoom the camera to its widest-angle setting. If vignetting occurs at this

setting (i.e. you can see the edges of the lens in the corners of the

picture), zoom the lens in slightly to eliminate.

3. Best photo results will occur under well-lit conditions. The built-in flash of

the camera will not supply sufficient light to obtain good results. When

using the lens in poorly lit areas, the use of an Ikelite DS Substrobe is

strongly recommended.
