Thank you for your purchase of an Ikelite Digital Camera Housing. Ikelite products have been designed and built in the USA for over 30 years by Ikelite for both the professional and amateur photographer.
The clear housing permits instant visual inspection of the camera and all sealing surfaces as well as complete monitoring of controls and camera LCD screens.
Ikelite Digital Housings are slightly negative in salt water for stability. This housing has been water pressure tested at the factory. Housing is pressure tested to 200’ (60m).
