Ikelite Underwater Camera Housing with E-TTL for the Canon Digital EOS 5D Camera, Clear Molded

Canon 5-D Digital SLR Camera Housing...The heavy duty thick wall dSLR housing is molded of corrosion free clear polycarbonate, features full capabilities, operates safely to 200 feet, and is realistically priced.

The #6871.05 housing includes conversion circuitry that provides eTTL2 compatibility for DS-50 and DS-125 SubStrobes, and new DS-80 and DS-200 models to be introduced in the first quarter of 2006. The circuitry includes two f/stopover and under compensation in half-stop increments, and eight manual power settings in half-stop increments by simply pushing a button.

All ports from our SLR systems can be utilized, allowing use of most macro, wideangle, and zoom lenses. This system allows you to see that the port is sealed.

The housing "O" ring seal is a masterpiece in fail-safe simplicity compared to designs that require stuffing the "O" ring into a groove. You can see that the "O" ring is sealed.

The Release Handles allows easy attachment and removal of SubStrobe mounting arms at the touch of a button. Two screws remove the handle and tray assembly for traveling.

The housing size and weight provides neutral buoyancy and superb handling underwater. Camera installation is quick and simple. The dependable controls areconveniently placed at your fingertips, and kept water tight with Ikelite pioneered Quad-Ring seal glands proven to be the most reliable method for sealing controls.

The Ikelite Super-Eye magnifier provided with the housing offers enhanced viewing while wearing a diving mask.

Other strobes can be used, but will not provide eTTL2 functions of the conversion circuitry. Mount and sync cords for Nikonos and sync cords for Inon or Sea & Sea strobes are available.

Conversion circuitry in the housing allows the latest Ikelite SubStrobe DS-50, DS-125, and DS-80 and DS-200 models to provide real eTTL and eTTL2 flash control as dictated by the camera. The circuitry is powered by the SubStrobe which is attached with a single #4103.51 or #4103.52 dual sync cord. These cords are identifiable by their blue band.

The circuitry powers up automatically when the strobe is turned on, lighting theyellow LED under "TTL" on the label indicating the system is ready to use. The arrow buttons under "Mode" on the label provide up to two f/stops over or under flash exposure compensation in half/stop increments. Minus one f/stop is shown in this photograph.

Push both buttons simultaneously for one second to change from eTTL to Manual strobe control. The yellow LED under "M" on the label illuminates, and the red LED shows "F" indicating full power. The arrow buttons access the eight manual power settings in half/stop increments.
