Ikelite Underwater Camera Housing for Canon Powershot SD-780 IS, Ixus 100 IS Digital Cameras

The Ikelite ULTRAcompact digital housings for Canon digital still cameras really deliver when performance and durability matter. The ULTRAcompact housing is high quality, built to last, and backed by Ikelite's long-standing reputation for excellence.

Easy open latch and drop in camera loading make set-up a breeze. All camera controls are fully functional through the housing and depth rated to 200ft (60m).

Housing measures 6" (15.2cm) wide; 4.4" (11cm) high including controls; 3.4" (8.6cm) deep including port. Camera and housing together weigh under 1.5 lbs (0.66kg) above water and are neutral underwater.

Camera's Built-in Flash. An included flash diffuser improves lighting quality when the camera's built-in flash is used. A bulit-in flash is effective less than three feet from the subject in clear conditions.

External Color Filters. Replace some of the reds and more natural tones that would otherwise be lost underwater. Available as #6441.32 for tropical blue water and #6441.72 for green water. Filters are effective in shallow, sunny conditions depending on waterclarity

External Underwater Strobes. Ikelite strobes are much more powerful, recycle more quickly, and eliminate more backscatter than the camera's built-in flash. The AutoFlash AF35 kit (at right) is the easiest and most affordable way to add valuable external flash to your system. For the best results in all conditions.

Wide Angle Conversion Lenses. An external wide angle conversion lens increases angle of coverage so you can get much closer to your subject while still fitting everything in the frame. By reducing the amount of water between the subject and your camera lens, the resulting image will be more crisp and colorful. Several options are available for attaching an external lens
• Attach 46mm threaded #6420.46 Ikelite W-20 and other lenses directly to the front of the housing port.
• Attach 67mm threaded #6420 Ikelite W-20, Inon Type II, and Epoque lenses using the #9306.81 port adapter.
• Attach Bayonet style Inon UWL-100 28AD, UWL-105AD and UFL-165AD lenses using the #9306.79 port adapter

Minimal vignetting (shading in the corners) may be present in the widest setting when using an external accessory lens. This can be eliminated by zooming in slightly
