5. Dark areas in your pictures.
a. This is mostly likely caused by not aiming the flash at the
subject or if the flash is somehow obstructed.
b. Areas further away from the camera will appear darker
than closer objects. Maximum shooting distance is
6ft/1.8m to 8ft/2.4m depending on water visibility and
the reflectivity of your subject.
c. Check the brightness control setting. Turn counter-
clockwise to increase flash brightness. Turn clockwise to
decrease flash brightness.
d. The reflectivity of your subject will cause some areas to
appear brighter than other areas. For example, dark coral
needs more light than would white coral. Adjust flash
intensity accordingly.
6. Flash arm is loose and does not maintain correct aiming
position.
a. Soak the arm in warm fresh water and flex the arm until
all links are clean and free of detergents or lubricants.
b. Never use detergents when cleaning the flash arm.
c. Test flash arm flexibility underwater. The flash arm will
become stiffer underwater.
