Sealife Sportdiver Ultra Underwater Smartphone Housing
- Product Code: ga150774
-
Compatible with more phones than previous models and featuring a horizontal window for phones with multiple lenses, the SeaLife SportDiver Ultra Underwater Housing for Smartphones lets you take photos and shoot video of the action beneath the waves. The SportDiver Ultra uses the free SportDiver app to operate your phone's camera via Bluetooth, with physical buttons and levers for shutter operation, playback, focus, and zoom, along with advanced camera settings. The housing protects your phone in two ways: a vacuum pump verifies the integrity of the seal before you dive, and a moisture detector will alert you in the unlikely event of a leak during the dive. Seven 1/4"-20 threads allow mounting on a tray or tripod and attaching lights and accessories.

- Large shutter and control buttons can be operated while wearing dive gloves
- Leak Avoidance System: A pre-dive pressure analysis gives you confidence that the underwater housing is 100% airtight and waterproof before entering the water. In the unlikely event of a leak while underwater, a secondary wet sensor alerts you of any water entry.

- The housing automatically connects to your smartphone using Bluetooth Low-Energy BT5 wireless technology. No cables or buttons touch the phone, and power consumption is ultra-low.
- A holding spring and rubber grip tabs securely hold the phone in place and add shock protection.
- SportDiver Ultra is compatible with Sea Dragon underwater photo-video lights and underwater wide-angle/macro lenses.
- Seven standard ¼"-20 tripod mounts allow for attaching underwater lighting or any tripod-mountable accessory.
- The cam-lock sealing mechanism easily and securely locks the waterproof door.
- Two AAA batteries provide over 50 hours of continuous use. AAA alkaline batteries are readily available no matter where your adventures take you.
- The SL911 Moisture Muncher capsule prevents fogging.
- Constructed of corrosion-resistant polycarbonate, stainless steel, and anodized aluminum, the SportDiver Ultra is depth-rated to 130', and each housing is individually depth-tested.
Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Has anyone tested this above water as a surf housing and able to give some feedback on its performance? It's obviously advertised as an underwater housing and geared toward divers however would love to know if above water the lens port beads with water droplets and fogs OR if it performs like a professional surf housing equipped for above water photo and video shooting?
A: I used it on surface before and after dives. It does get droplets on the port. I usually apply some antifog on the port which somewhat helps with droplets. I never used surf housing so cannot tell how would it compare. Fogging: none, under or above surface. To be 100% sure try to close the housing in a dry area like hotel room with a/c; or at least add anti fog insert - cheap gopro ones or even piece of bathroom tissue work fine. Yes, as it was said in another answer this housing is quite bulky - it is a generic design rather than custom tight fit for the RX-100 (that is my only complaint, other than that it works great).
Q: 2. Does this work with DJI Action camera?
A: Yes, you can use the SeaLife AquaPod Mini Underwater Monopod with GoPro Adapter with a DJI Osmo Action camera.
Q: 3. In Time-Lapse mode, How long does the battery run for? If I set it for 30 minute intervals is it going to last a week or just 2 hours like GoPro?
A: The SeaLife ReefMaster RM-4K Ultra Compact Digital Underwater Camera is still in development as of November 2018. At this time we don't have any technical information and SeaLife does not know when they will be shipping the camera.
Q: 4. Does this work with the SeaLife Micro 3.0?
A: Yes. The SeaLife AquaPod Mini Underwater Monopod with GoPro Adapter will work for the SeaLife Micro3.0 as the camera has a standard ¼-20 UNC tripod threads.
Q: 5. Will this work with an RX100 that has one of Sony's own stick-on hand-grips attached to the front?
A: You cannot put a RX100 camera with the hand grip in the Sony Underwater Housing for RX100-Series Cameras.
Q: 6. Does the Aquapod ship with a strap on the handle as shown in one of the posted pictures for this product?
A: Yes, This ships with a strap tha can be attached to the handle.
Q: 7. What is the buoyancy of the housing with camera loaded. Does it require additional weights to become neutral similar to Canon ones?
A: I upgraded from a SeaLife and had the arm and video light attachment. Using this device with the Sony, is the perfect bouncy.
Q: 8. Does anyone know if this will fit in an aquatech elite housing for d750? I just need something to secure my camera.
A: Unfortunately, the SeaLife Ikelite Camera Housing Adapter for Flex-Connect Trays won't fit a housing for DSLR. It is made for small point and shoot housings.
Q: 9. Can I use remote control to control shooting on SeaLife RM-4K?
A: Unfortunately, a remote control option is not available for this product.
Q: 10. Does the Aqua Pod Mini extend as far as the original Aquapod?
