Outex Underwater Housing System - Detailed Installation Instructions for Pro Kit + Flash

Detailed Installation video for the Outex underwater camera housing system for the Pro Kit bundle that includes covers, front and rear glass ports, and waterproof test. This video also shown the on-board (hot shoe) flash installation details as reference.

Critical Components of Installation:
1. Cover lip is evenly distributed around the base of the inner flange of the Outex glass rings - around the base of the circumference.
2. Apply the L-shaped middle O-ring facing the right direction. The O-Ring acts as the "female" match to the Cover lip's "male". So the O-Ring opening faces downward towards the cover, creating the seal.
3. When threading/tightening the seal with the outer ring, create the pressure on the Outex parts, not the camera or lens. For example, on the front glass, one hand should hold the inner (inside the cover portion attached to the lens) portion of the flange, and the other hand should be holding the outer ring that threads onto it. This way you are applying pressure onto the seal, and not to the lens itself. The same applies on all/any of the Outex seals.
4. Always conduct the water test in a sink, tub, bucket, pool, or similar calm body of water if you're submerging the camera for use. This will confirm that your installation is correct. If you see continuous escaping air bubbles, repeat the sealing around the affected area (steps 1-3).

There are several different videos on our website and YouTube channel, depicting different Outex products, add-ons, and accessories, such as tripod, flash, cable/tethering, straps, domes, and other Outex housing parts.
The waterproof seal test Initial test can be done without any camera gear inside the housing if you choose to do so for practice. It develops good habits and helps you understand the nuances of the patented waterproof seals.
