Ikelite 200DLM/A Underwater Housing for Sony Alpha a6000 Mirrorless Camera

Become an underwater explorer with the 200DLM/A Underwater Housing, specifically designed for the Sony Alpha a6000 mirrorless camera. This robust housing enables photographers and videographers to capture the wonders of the aquatic world, whether you're scuba diving, snorkeling, surfing, or simply enjoying the pool.

Ergonomics and Handling:
Experience unparalleled control with the housing's ergonomic design. Large, curved control levers are strategically placed for immediate access to shutter and autofocus functions, essential for capturing sharp images of dynamic underwater scenes. For those who prefer back button focus, this housing supports that advanced technique, ensuring precise focus for super macro and fast-moving subjects. Optional Shutter Trigger Extension #4077.95 can be added for optimal lever positioning when using a right-hand handle.

Intuitive Operation:
Navigate your camera's settings with ease, thanks to the intuitively designed soft-touch knobs and stainless steel rotating controls that offer reliability and the ability to adjust on the fly. All camera buttons are accessible through smooth, hard-anodized aluminum push buttons, laser engraved for durability and ease of use. The housing also includes dual 1/4-20 threaded mounting points for secure attachment of accessories and handles, enhancing underwater maneuverability and providing a stable platform for lighting systems.

Effortless Set-Up:
The front-loading camera mount simplifies the installation and removal process, featuring a small mounting plate that remains attached to the camera, allowing for uninterrupted surface use and quick battery or memory card changes. The mounting plate also includes a 1/4-20 threaded mount for tripod attachment above water.

Confidence in Construction:
The housing's unique rear seal design eliminates the risk of o-ring distortion, ensuring a confident and watertight assembly without the worry of trapping sand or debris. Stainless steel locking lid snaps provide robust security, complemented by a clear back that allows visual confirmation of the o-ring seal integrity.

Vacuum Testing:
Prepare for your dive with peace of mind using the optional Vacuum Kit #47012, which can be easily installed through the spare 1/2-20 threaded accessory port. This system not only checks for leaks but also reinforces the housing's security in rough conditions.

Viewfinders and Lighting:
Enjoy full visibility of the camera's large LCD screen through the housing's clear back, with the option to tilt the screen for comfortable viewing angles underwater. To combat light absorption and maintain vibrant colors, external lighting is recommended. The housing accommodates various lighting options, including strobes via electrical sync cord or fiber optic triggering, and constant-on video lights for focus assist and video capture.

Port System:
Switching between ports is a breeze with the DLM Port System, allowing for the use of an array of zoom, macro, and wide-angle lenses. The system's optical grade acrylic domes offer the clarity and durability of glass without the added weight, ideal for travel.

Durability and Corrosion-Free Performance:
Constructed from a white ABS-PC blend, the housing is not only strong and corrosion-resistant but also lightweight for travel and reduced drag underwater. The color is designed to deflect sunlight and keep the camera cool, while providing high contrast to monitor the camera, LCD screen, and o-ring seal.

Proudly Made in the USA:
Ikelite products, including this housing, are meticulously crafted and tested in the USA, ensuring top-quality materials and performance. Each unit undergoes water pressure testing to 200 feet (60m), backed by over 50 years of expertise in the dive industry.
