IKELITE UNDERWATER HOUSING 200DL FOR CANON EOS 750D REBEL T6I, KISS X8I

Capture sharp, detailed images and video at depths as great as 200' with IKELITE UNDERWATER HOUSING 200DL FOR CANON EOS 750D REBEL T6I, KISS X8I. An Ikelite ICS-5 bulkhead with a manual hot shoe connection enables reliable electrical triggering of optional, external strobes. Use of an optional TTL hot shoe and circuitry will allow for TTL operation with compatible Ikelite DS strobes; non-Ikelite strobes will still work in manual mode only.

Construction Details

• Made in the USA from corrosion-resistant polycarbonate and ABS plastic
• White on the front, top, sides, and bottom to reflect sunlight and keep camera cool when shooting on or above water's surface
• The clear back allows you to monitor the O-ring seal and maintain a view of the camera's rear controls
• Housing alone has nearly neutral buoyancy in freshwater; overall system buoyancy varies based on the choice of lens and port
• Open-groove design suspends rear O-ring in a natural position, allowing for easier maintenance and preventing accidental twisting or stretching of O-ring
• Front-loading camera mounting system makes installation and removal easy
• The camera mounting plate enables quick installation and does not need to be removed in order for you to gain battery or memory card access

Strobe Connection and Operation

• Ikelite ICS-5 bulkhead with manual hot shoe connection enables reliable electrical triggering of optional, external strobes via sync cords
• Optional # 46070 CT1K Canon TTL Kit (hot shoe and circuitry) will allow for TTL operation with compatible Ikelite DS strobes; non-Ikelite strobes such as SEA&SEA, INON, and Retra will work in manual mode only
• TTL exposure compensation adjustable in-camera
• Flash units without sync cords may be triggered as slaves by hard-wired strobes
• Ikelite DS strobes support the remote triggering of additional flash units via Optical Slave Converter #4403 or Aquatica's Water Wizard system
• Flash bulkhead onto the top of the housing to prevent sync cord from getting in the way and to reduce strain

Controls and Handling

• Ergonomic controls afford access to key camera functions
• Following functions inaccessible: dioptric adjustment knob, flash button
• Control symbols laser-etched into the rear of the housing won't fade with time
• Anodized aluminum tray with a left-hand quick-release grip affords good balance and handling, while offering an attachment point for an optional lighting arm
• Optional right-hand QR grip can be added to allow for a second lighting arm to be connected
• Camera mounting plate has 1/4"-20 threaded hole for connection to optional tripod
• 1/4"-20 threaded hole on housing above lens port for accessories like a focus light or GoPro camera

Lens Port System

• Dry Lock (DL) Port System accommodates lenses with large diameters
• Housing ships without a required lens port, and accepts interchangeable dome and flat ports for various zoom, macro, and wide-angle lenses
• Accepts array of zoom and focus gears for various lenses
• Large, soft-touch knob on side of the housing makes small adjustments easy
• Vacuum valve for checking watertight integrity before dive (Separately sold #47011 Pump with Gauge required to create a vacuum)
• DL mount may be removed and replaced with old-style port locks to allow for mounting of standard or modular Four Lock ports; however, re-installation of DL base will require you to ship housing back to Ikelite or another authorized service center
