Ichikawa Soft Laboratory has studied color loss in water based on the results of measurements of a
large number of color samples actually conducted in the ocean, and has developed “Natural Light
Technology” to reproduce vivid, accurate colors based on ongoing research into color reproduction
of pictures taken underwater.

¢

[Color Reproduction] in the [Rec] menu and [Color Reproduction] under [Retouch] in the [Playback]
menu make use of this technology.
¢ “Natural Light Technology” is the technology behind “SILKYPIX Marine Photography”, Ichikawa

Measured depth may not be accurate when pressure is applied to front or rear of this unit by
pressing with your hands, etc. In such a case, it is recommended to perform [Depth indicator] again
when you get back to the surface.

The display may differ significantly depending on the weather conditions (atmospheric pressure, air
temperature), or seawater temperature.

For more accurate depth measurements, we recommend that you perform [Depth indicator] before
you dive underwater.

When the unit is wet immediately after coming out of the water, etc., it may not be able to measure
atmospheric pressure accurately. For details, read

pressure
