IKELITE UNDERWATER ACTION HOUSING FOR CANON POWERSHOT G7 X MARK III

Capture HD video and still images at depths as far down as 200' beneath the surface with Ikelite's compact, lightweight UNDERWATER ACTION HOUSING FOR THE CANON POWERSHOT G7 X MARK III DIGITAL CAMERA. Two ports are provided for the use of fiber optic cables for external strobes.

The housing features a built-in, flat, optical glass lens port with a 3" diameter. Optional, accessory wide-angle and macro conversion lenses as well as color-correction filters can be attached to the front of the port to enhance your images.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Weight: 17.8 oz (505 g)
• 6 x 4.6 x 4.5" (152 x 117 x 114 mm)

CONSTRUCTION DETAILS

• Depth rating of 200'/ 60m
• Constructed by hand in USA from corrosion-resistant ABS and polycarbonate blend, which is light gray/off-white on front, sides, top, and bottom, but clear in back to allow you to monitor O-ring seal and rear camera controls
• Light gray/off-white color reflects sunlight to keep camera cool when shooting at or above water's surface, and offers better contrast for improved viewing of camera, monitor, and O-ring seal
• Controls made of acetyl plastic
• Compact, lightweight design is well-suited to action video recording and makes for easy storage and transport

OPTIONAL LIGHTING

• Two ports allow optional fiber-optic cables to use camera's built-in flash to trigger external strobes

CONTROLS AND HANDLING

• Affords access to important camera functions via ergonomic, mechanical controls, including push buttons and a knurled dial with a small lever
• Shutter button, power on/off, zoom (wide/telephoto) lever, movie button, erase button, MENU button, up/down/left/right buttons, FUNC./SET button, and playback button are all accessible
• Central, bottom-mounted 1/4"-20 threaded hole provides attachment point for optional tray with handles, which improves balance while offering mounting points for lighting arms
• Slightly positive buoyancy in fresh water

LENS PORT

• Built-in, flat, optical glass lens port with a scratch-resistant front element, 3" diameter, and 67mm filter thread
• Provides full use of the camera's zoom range without vignetting
• Optional, external, 67mm threaded wide-angle and macro accessory lenses from Ikelite, INON, Epoque, and other manufacturers can be attached directly to front of port
• Wide-angle lenses provide greater angle of coverage to allow you to fit more in frame, while macro lenses magnify your image to enable close-ups with greater clarity and detail
• Both types of conversion lenses get you closer to subjects, reducing amount of water in between you and therefore minimizing distortion
• Wide-angle lenses often result in some vignetting, which can be reduced/eliminated by zooming in, using smaller aperture, or cropping in editing/post-production phase
• Recommended WD-3 Wide-Angle Dome provides mid-range angle of view with no vignetting
• Optional, external color-correction filters, available for tropical blue and green water, can be attached via press-fit method to front of port to restore hues that get absorbed underwater
• Since color filters reduce amount of light that enters lens, they are most effective in sunny conditions at depths of about 80' or less
• Color filters not recommended for use in conjunction with external lighting, as combination can throw off color accuracy in images
• Most wide-angle lenses require a filter with a 3.6" diameter
