The heavy duty thick wall dSLR housing is molded of corrosion free clear polycarbonate, features full capabilities, and operates safely to 200 feet.

The housing includes iTTL conversion circuitry that provides four 1/3 f/stop increments over or under flash compensation that is added to or subtracted from any compensation entered into the camera, or seven manual power settings in half-stop increments. All choices are obtained by simply rotating a knob on the housing back.

The housing's special conversion circuitry operates perfectly with all current model Ikelite DS digital SubStrobes. See strobe requirements by serial number.

Other strobes can be used, but they can not provide iTTL. Mount and sync cords for Nikonos and sync cords for Inon or Sea & Sea strobes are available.

All ports from our SLR systems can be utilized, allowing use of most macro, wide angle, and zoom lenses. This system allows you to see that the port is sealed.

The housing "O" ring seal is a masterpiece in fail-safe simplicity compared to designs that require stuffing the "O" ring into a groove. You can see that the "O" ring is sealed.

The Release Handles allow easy attachment and removal of SubStrobe mounting arms at the touch of a button. Two screws remove the handle and tray assembly for traveling.

Controls for all camera functions are provided except lock switch and the function button.

AE/AF lock button can be activated with your thumb while holding the handle. The AF "on" is controlled by push button.

Camera Flash Compensation button can be activated by your index finger while your hand remains on the handle. A control for Lens Release is also included.

Focus-mode (C/S/M) selector can be changed with a little finesse.

The camera tray is notched, allowing battery and card replacement without removing the camera from the tray.

The housing size and weight provides neutral buoyancy and superb handling underwater. Camera installation is quick and simple. The dependable controls are conveniently placed at your fingertips, and kept water tight with Ikelite pioneered Quad-Ring seal glands proven to be the most reliable method for sealing controls.

The Ikelite Super-Eye magnifier provided with the housing offers enhanced viewing while wearing a diving mask.
