Allowing you to shoot beneath the sea with select Sony RX100-series cameras, this Underwater Housing is a protective casing featuring dual water-tight gaskets that enables you to photograph in depths down to 130'. The dedicated design maintains access to all camera controls, including a rotary lens-ring dial, zoom lever, push buttons for menu access, and a large lever-type shutter button. The housing also permits the use of the cameras' built-in flash, and an included detachable diffuser can be used to lessen vignetting and provide a more even wash of lighting. Additionally, the front of the housing has 67mm filter threads to permit the attachment of color-correction filters or other threaded lens accessories. A top accessory shoe is available for working with an optional external flash, and the bottom of the housing also incorporates three 1/4"-20 mounts for mounting an accessory grip or handle.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Is it works with new rx100 M7?
A: Yes.
Q: 2. Will this housing work with the adapter ring for the Sony VFA-49R1 49mm Filter Adapter on the front of the camera? I don't mean the FULL adapter, but the small plastic ring that gets glued to the front of the camera body. This would be a deal breaker for me... as I can't just rip off the filter adapter to use this underwater housing whenever I'd like.
A: I don't have the Sony adapter, but I have a third-party filter adapter that has a metal ring that gets glued to the lens, and that works just fine with the housing.
Q: 3. What is the proper size for a replacement o-ring?
A: I can confirm a JIS G120 o-ring is the correct size replacement for this housing. I purchased a bunch of these o-rings to use with this housing for a recent dive trip. The o-rings are visually identical (aside from sony's grey coloring) to the stock seal. I had 14 successful dives with no leaking or weeping. Buna-N is sufficient if you go this route, along with standard silicon o-ring lubricant.
Q: 4. Best way to keep to clean the front lens?
A: This ZEISS Lens Care Kit is a great option to clean the front lens of the Ikelite Underwater Housing for Sony Cyber-shot RX100 Mark VI & Mark VII https://bit.ly/3YkX4zz
Q: 5. How is this new version different than the prior version which is light gray?
A: Ikelite states their new white ABS-PC blend housing provides strength and corrosion free performance year with minimal maintenance. The specially formulated color deflects the sun to keep your camera running cooler, longer. Compared to black or clear housings, the light color provides superior contrast for enhanced view of the camera, LCD screen, and O-ring seal. (The older (now discontinued) Ikelite Underwater Housing for Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III Digital Camera, B&H # IK6116.12, the Ikelite Underwater Housing for Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV Digital Camera, B&H # IK6116.14, and the Ikelite Underwater Housing for Sony Cyber-shot RX100 V Digital Camera, MFR # 6116.16, were the previous versions of the new 6116.15 housing. The previous versions were clear, not gray, in color. I did not find a gray Ikelite housing designed for use with the RX100 III, IV, and V cameras).
Q: 6. 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: 7. Does this housing have a fiberoptic port? Can it be used with Sea&Sea YS-03
A: Yes, it comes with a special adapter to black out the flash. The adapter has 2 holes with a removal cover to insert the fiber optic port.
Q: 8. Will this work with the new RX100 VI?
A: I just received mine with a new RX100VI. It will work, but there are a few issues from what I can tell. First, the LCD doesn't line up quite right and you can't see the right few millimeters (not a big deal). Second, you have to make sure not to zoom past 70mm or the lens hits the housing and the camera then asks you to power down and then power back up to reset the zoom. So far this doesn't seem like a big issue, but I haven't used it underwater yet and I'm not sure how much of a nuisance this will be. (I have to amend my last post on this because I mentioned that the power button wasn't usable when the camera was in the housing. I was wrong, I just had it set up improperly.)
Q: 9. Does this work with the RX100 shooting grip attached?
A: No, it will not. Any additional camera grips would have to be removed before inserting the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 VI Digital Camera inside the Ikelite Underwater Housing for Sony Cyber-shot RX100 Mark VI. There is not enough clearance to use a grip with the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 VI Digital Camera, and attempting to use one would prevent the housing from closing properly for underwater usage and may prevent the buttons on the housing from properly aligning with the buttons on the camera.
Q: 10. Recently purchased a ikelite housing for rx100 v and recommend accessory AF35 strobe, upon receiving and open the manual which clearly states clearly that the two items are not compatible. Any solution toe retrofit?
A: Unfortunately not. The AF35's sensor cannot detect the camera's flash. We recommend paring the DS51 strobe (4044.1) with the arm (4080.05), Fiber Optic Converter (4401.1), and Fiber Optic Cord (4501). a href= http://www.ikelite.com/lighting/4044.1-ds51-strobe.html target= _blank http://www.ikelite.com/lighting/4044.1-ds51-strobe.html/aa href= http://www.ikelite.com/accessories/4080.01-ball-arm-mark-ii.html target= _blank http://www.ikelite.com/accessories/4080.01-ball-arm-mark-ii.html/aa href= http://www.ikelite.com/accessories/4401.1-fiber-optic-converter.html target= _blank http://www.ikelite.com/accessories/4401.1-fiber-optic-converter.html/aa href= http://www.ikelite.com/accessories/4501-fiber-optic-cord.html target= _blank http://www.ikelite.com/accessories/4501-fiber-optic-cord.html/a
