Ikelite SLR-DC Housing for Sony α65
Discontinued.
Product Overview:
Ikelite's housing for the Sony a65 is contoured to the camera, durable, and completely corrosion free. A clear view of the main o-ring seal, port o-ring seal and camera controls provides ease of use and confidence. The housing is fully functional to a depth rating of 200 feet (60m) and only slightly negative in salt water depending on choice of lens port (Lens port required—sold separately.)
CONTROLS - Controls are provided through the housing for every camera function except the diopter adjustment dial, preview button and flash pop-up button and kept water-tight with Ikelite pioneered Quad-Ring seal glands—proven to be the most reliable method of sealing controls. A large zoom control knob can be comfortably reached without removing your hand from the handle. Recording start/stop while in video mode is accessed effortlessly by the thumb of your right hand.
PORTS - A full range of dome and flat ports accommodate most macro, wide angle and zoom lenses. The standard port line offers compact and affordable options without sacrificing quality. The modular port system offers maximum versatility and performance with interchangeable 8" dome and flat port assemblies. Port attachment is quick and easy with a simple locking system and the port o-ring seal is clearly viewed through the housing. Lens ports sold separately.
TTL - The TTL conversion circuitry in the housing works perfectly with all current model Ikelite DS Substrobes. Compared to fiber-optic based systems, hard-wired TTL control provides more correct exposure, quicker recycle times and increases battery life of your camera and strobe.
