Bluewater Ikelite Canon R100 Starter Package

Check out our full Canon EOS R100 Review!

With the Bluewater Ikelite Canon R100 Underwater Starter Kit, you can take your Canon R100 underwater (one of Canon's best underwater camera options) and capture stunning photos and videos of marine life, coral reefs, and other underwater wonders.

If you are looking for a package to start capturing stunning photos, this one is for you. The set comes with a single strobe which allows you to capture stunning photos, lightweight housing, camera, lens and dome port. The housing is built from ABS-PC material which provides strength and requires minimal maintenance. It also has excellent ergonomics, button and lever location has been well thought off to make your shooting experience wonderful even when wearing thick gloves.

Here are some of the key features of the Ikelite Canon R100 Underwater Starter Kit:

  • Watertight to 200 feet (60 meters)
  • Durable and lightweight construction
  • Easy to use controls
  • Wide field of view dome port
  • Tray and handles for easy carrying and maneuvering
  • High powered underwater strobe
  • Spare o-rings for repairs

If you're looking for a high-quality and affordable way to get started with underwater photography with your Canon R100 camera, then the Ikelite Canon R100 Underwater Starter Kit is the perfect choice for you.

What's Included:

Housing Features:

  • Ergonomics - The Ikelite R100 Housing has excellent ergonomics. Buttons, levers and dials are located at your fingertips. The curved trigger levers for shutter and back button focus can hug the side of the housing if shooting without a grip or be extended for easy reach from an optional handle. AF-ON is accessible with your thumb by a lever control at the side of the housing. When combined with back button focus, this provides a shooting method far easier than attempting to half-press the camera's shutter button. Soft-touch control knobs add comfort and extra grip to the main dial, quick control dial, power switch, and lens release. Stainless steel, direct-drive rotating controls are virtually fail-safe and user serviceable and adjustable in a pinch.
  • Setup - Installation and removal of the camera is very easy.  A small mounting plate attaches to the bottom of the camera and secures in the front of the housing. The camera mounting plate does not need to be removed from the camera for surface use or when changing the battery or memory cards. The mounting plate features a 1/4-20 threaded mount on the bottom so that it can be attached to a tripod on the surface.
  • Vacuum Testing - The optional Ikelite Vacuum Kit allows you to draw a vacuum on the housing to check for proper assembly prior to entering the water and provides peace of mind.
  • TTL Strobe Exposure - Ikelite offers a fast and accurate TTL converter - Ikelite DL5 DS Link Canon TTL Converter and CT1 TTL Hotshoe Kit which can be programmed to the camera's specific TTL protocol and supports both first curtain and rear curtain sync up to the camera's maximum flash sync speed.  Exposure compensation can be used added or subtracted in the camera. A push button and indicator light on the side of the converter make it simple to switch back and forth between TTL and manual exposure underwater.
  • Strobe Compatiblity - Strobes can be connected via electronic sync cord, fiber optic strobes are not compatible.
