Attaching a focus light
Why use a focus light?
Night diving , wreck diving, cave exploration or heavy kelp canopies are diving scenarios
where ambient light is not available to help cameras auto focus.
The Olympus 5060 auto focus system depends on identifying subject contrast. Without
a strong light source illuminating your subject, the camera may fail to focus properly or
not focus at all.
There are two type of focus lights available for the Tetra 5060.
Classic Focus Light
The Classic Focus Light is a halogen
light system powered by a light weight
rechargeable NiMH battery.
The broad beam of the Classic Focus
Light not only lights up your subject,
but doubles as a dive light and will help
you identify subjects missed by
narrower lights.
Tetra Pointer Light
The pointer lights is a simple solution
for adding just enough light. The
pointer light provides a narrow beam
to assist your camera.The pointer light
is powered by 4 AA batteries.
