New Ikelite underwater housings for Sony W series (24-08-2008)
The Ikelite ULTRA compact digital housings for Sony digital still cameras really deliver when performance and durability matter. The housings are high quality, built to last, and backed by Ikelite's long-standing reputation for excellence. All camera controls are fully functional through the housing and depth rated to 200ft (60m). Easy open latch and drop in camera loading make set-up a breeze.
The housing measures 15.2cm (6") wide; 11cm (4.4") high including controls; and 8.6cm (3.4") deep including port. The housing weighs just 660 gram (1.5 lbs) above water and is nearly neutral underwater with camera installed.
An included flash diffuser improves lighting quality when the camera's built-in flash is used. The bulit-in flash is only effective when less than a meter feet from the subject in clear conditions, but for better results an external slave strobe can be used. These are much more powerful, recycle more quickly, and eliminate more backscatter than the camera's built-in flash.
The extremely wide view of the camera's lens prevents the use of accessory wide angle conversion lenses, nor can external color filters be attached. New models are the Ikelite #6210.12 for Sony DSC-W120 and W130, the #6210.30 for the DSC-W300 and the #6210.15 underwater housing for the Sony DSC-W150 and W170.
