"Q" control dial on Ikelite 200DL for 5D3-5D4-5DS ?

  1. Hi,

    might be a dumb question, but...let's go :

    On a EOS 6D in its Ike housing, I'm used to change settings via the Q control dial in manual mode :
    Q > push buttons left/right > aperture/shutter speed> SET.
    Fast & easy.

    As the 200DL housing for EOS 5D3-5D4-5DS has no joystick access,
    how do you navigate through "Q" control dial to change aperture and shutter speed ?

    thanks for your help

    Laurent

  2. Will probably be impossible if there is no access to the multicontroller. But in M mode, why not use the front and rear dials ?

  3. Hi Gerard, thanks.

    yes, front & rear dials work,

    but "Q" dial is fast & easy : everything under one finger only,

    very convenient in certain situations, such as cave diving pics.

     

    And so, I guess I'll look for housings offering multicontroler access...
