Capture brilliant images of the aquatic world with your Sony Alpha 1 or a7S III mirrorless camera in Ikelite's 200DL Underwater Housing with Dry Lock Port Mount, which has a depth rating of 200'. An Ikelite bulkhead with a manual hot shoe connection enables reliable electrical triggering of optional external strobes via sync cords. The use of an optional TTL hot shoe and converter will allow for TTL operation with compatible Ikelite DS strobes; non-Ikelite strobes will still work in manual mode only.

Ergonomic, mechanical push buttons, dials, and levers afford access to all important camera functions. Built for durability, the enclosure is made in the USA from a corrosion-resistant ABS plastic and polycarbonate blend. It is white on the front, top, sides, and bottom, but clear in the back to allow you to monitor the O-ring seal and maintain your view of the camera's rear controls. The supplied aluminum tray with a left-hand quick release grip affords improved balance and handling while offering an attachment point for an optional lighting arm.

This housing ships without a required lens port and accepts various, interchangeable dome and flat ports for an array of lenses. For complete compatibility information, see the port chart. The Dry Lock (DL) port system accommodates lenses with large diameters, and it provides added security against leaks at the surface, thanks in large part to the included vacuum valve for checking watertight integrity before the dive. You'll need to pick up the required pump to remove excess air and create a vacuum.

A: Unfortunately not. The AF35's sensor cannot detect the camera's flash.

Q: 3. Is the port system compatible with my old ports from Rebel t1i's Ikelite housing? I have an 8 dome w/port body, also have a flat port for my 60mm macro lens.

A: This housing ships with the Dry Lock (DL) port base, which will not be compatible with older Four Lock (FL) ports.

Q: 4. Would this be an appropriate waterproof case for the canon rebel t6i; would it fit? If not, what would be a better option?

A: The Ikelite 200DL Underwater Housing for Canon EOS Rebel T7i with Dry Lock Port Mount (200') is not compatible with the T6i. We could get for you the Nimar Underwater Housing for Canon EOS Rebel T6i. Keep in mind none of these housings include a lens port. You have to purchase a port to match the lens you are using.

Q: 5. I have a 5-D mark 3. I want to buy the 200-200 foot housing. I need strobes and accessories that are user friendly. I want to do mostly macro and wide angle pictures. What do you recommend for lenses and strobes for a new underwater DLSR user. I have only had point and shoot cameras prior? Thanks Ken

A: The Ikelite DS-51 Underwater Substrobe Head is a good user friendly strobe. You will need an arm, sync cord and Ikelite CT1K TTL Circuitry and the Hot Shoe Kit to use the strobe with the Ikelite 71702 Underwater Housing.

Q: 6. Hi, is this compatible with the Sony Zeiss FE16-35mm f4 lens and Sony 16-50mm kit lens? Thank you

A: Yes this would work for both lenses

Q: 7. 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: 8. Does this camera work with the A6000 camera? You mention higher series versions but not the A6000 specifically.

A: The Ikelite 200DLM/A Underwater Housing for Sony Alpha A6300, A6400, A6500 Mirrorless Camera, BH #IK6911.64, is incompatible with the Sony Alpha a6000 Mirrorless Digital Camera. The Ikelite 200DLM/A Underwater Housing for Sony Alpha a6000 Mirrorless Camera, BH #IKUWHSAA600, is compatible.

Q: 9. Does the RX100 VA fit on this?

A: The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 VA will fit in the Ikelite Underwater Housing for Sony Cyber-shot RX100 Mark III, IV, or V (Updated Version, White).

Q: 10. Does this unit allow the RX100 V built in flash to be used directly?

A: No, the Ikelite Underwater Housing for Sony Cyber-shot RX100 Mark III, IV, or V offers Controls for all camera functions except Flash switch and Viewfinder switch.
