Ikelite Underwater Housing, OM System Tough TG-7 Camera and Strobe Deluxe Kit
A great option for travelers looking for a very lightweight and compact system is the OM System Tough TG-7 with Ikelite ULTRA compact Underwater Housing. It comes with everything you need to start shooting sharp, vivid, and bright underwater images, including a deluxe package with strobe.
The TG-7 performs exceptionally well in low light thanks to its high-speed back-lit CMOS picture sensor and brilliant 25–100mm mid-range zoom lens. The TG-7's microscope mode is among the greatest macro alternatives now available underwater if you enjoy searching for the little things. Macro close-up photos captured by this camera are on par with or even superior to those captured by pricey mirrorless cameras.
The FCON-T02 Fisheye Lens is a great lens, and having the only underwater housing that supports it will be helpful when you want to explore wide angle photography. You may shift from macro to wide angle in the same dive by simply replacing the flat port with the optional Dome Port. With just a button press, the FCON-T02 with Dome Port allows for complete zoom through. It is incredibly lightweight. Split shots—half in, half out of the water—are made simple by this combination, which can be challenging or impossible to achieve with external wide angle lenses.
The TG-7 can record in ultra HD 4K resolution and take RAW images, making it an effective tool for post-dive color adjustments with the bundled software or Adobe Lightroom. Even without a housing, the TG-7 is waterproof to 50' (15.2m), which lessens the strain of setup.

Lens Options
The Ikelite 6" Dome Port offers the best of everything: wide angle, macro, and over-under all on one dive. This special dome port replaces the housing's standard port and provides sharp 25mm wide angle, full zoom through and macro capabilities, and is perfect for split shots (half-in, half-out of the water). Add the optional FCON-T02 Fisheye Lens with converter for the widest option available for this camera.
The W-30 Wide Angle Lens, INON UWL-H100, and other 67mm threaded wide angle lenses, provide a wider maximum angle of view. Because these are separated from the camera's lens by glass, air, and water, some vignetting and edge distortion will be present. These effects can be reduced or eliminated by using a smaller aperture, zooming in slightly, and/or cropping in post-production.
External macro lenses with 67mm threads from INON and other manufacturers, can be attached directly to the front of the housing's port.
