( I have included two close-ups of the scratches on the wide angle lens shade for full disclosure. This is normal wear). I also have two Sea and Sea YSD2 strobes with arms and cables on a different listing, that can be added to the package to make an even more complete setup.
The Fantasea underwater housing was designed to fit both Sony A6300 and A6500. What's new about the housing is Fantasea has added the Hybrid Vacuum System which ensures your camera to be sealed inside the housing while underwater. The housing still features excellent ergonomic design, with access to all essential camera functions and is crafted to provide functionality, style and durability. The package also includes a port and lens gear for Sony 16-50mm lens!

Big News - you can switch between Macro and Wide Angle with this setup
By using the UWL-09 wide-angle lens, or the Nauticam WWL-1 wet wide angle lens with the 16-50mm lens, you will have the ability to switch between macro and wide-angle on the same dive! The 16-50mm port for this housing has 67mm threads, and there are lens holders than can hold your macro and wide-angle lenses on your arms.
Change Lenses with Ease:
Utilize the best accessories available from Fantasea in order to quickly and easily change lenses underwater. The Fantasea Bayonet system makes it simple to remove and replace your wet lenses while diving. Using the Sony 16-50mm lens and flat port, you can add on the Bayonet pieces and have an excellent wide angle and macro set up all on the same dive. This is the most flexible mirrorless system for underwater photography.
