SLR-DC Housing for Nikon D3100 Camera
- Ikelite Product #6801.31 ...... $1,400 ( Lens port, camera and lens not included. )
This heavy-duty clear polycarbonate case is contoured to the camera, durable, and completely
corrosion free.
A clear view of the main o-ring seal,
port o-ring seal and camera controls provides ease of use and confidence.
The housing is fully functional to a depth rating of 200 feet (60m) and
only slightly negative in salt water depending on
choice of lens port (Lens port required—sold separately.)

Controls are provided through the housing for every camera function except the diopter adjustment
dial and kept water-tight with Ikelite pioneered Quad-Ring seal glands—proven to be the
most reliable method of sealing controls.
A large zoom control knob can be comfortably reached without removing your
hand from the handle. Recording start/stop while in video mode is also accessed effortlessly from the handle by the
thumb of your right hand.
The Super-Eye magnifier comes standard and offers enhanced visibility of the camera's
viewfinder while wearing a diving mask.
The camera's large LCD screen can be clearly viewed through the back of the housing.
The live preview feature of the camera is accessible for framing
your photos using the camera's LCD screen.
Release handles with comfortable rubber grips allow for easy attachment and removal of
mounting arms at the touch of a button. Two 12-24 screws remove the handle and tray assembly
for traveling. A 1/4-20 threaded top mount allows for attachment of a focus light.
Accepts #9571.6 optional 1" (2.5cm) or #9573.1 Flex Ball Adapters, sold separately.
- Lens Ports (required—sold separately).
-
A full range of dome and flat ports accommodate most macro, wide angle and zoom lenses.
The standard port line offers
compact and affordable options without sacrificing quality.
The modular port system offers maximum versatility and performance with interchangeable 8" dome and
flat port assemblies.
Port attachment is quick and easy with a simple locking system and the port o-ring seal
is clearly viewed through the housing. Lens ports sold separately.

- TTL Exposure with Ikelite DS Substrobes.
-
We feel that true TTL exposure is so important in underwater photography that we include
TTL conversion circuitry in every Ikelite digital SLR housing.
The TTL conversion circuitry in the housing works perfectly with all current model
Ikelite DS Substrobes. Compared to fiber-optic based systems, hard-wired TTL control provides
more correct exposure, quicker recycle times and
increases battery life of your camera and strobe.
A large dial on the back of the housing puts precise exposure control right at your fingertips.
The top (yellow) half of the exposure dial provides four 1/3 f/stop increments over
or under flash compensation that is added to or subtracted from any compensation entered
into the camera. The bottom (black) half of the dial provides seven manual power settings
in half-stop increments.
Ikelite DS series Substrobes are industry
favorites for their warm, even coverage and lightning fast recycle time. We recommend convenient
and affordable strobe with sync cord packages that provide everything you need to take
advantage of "automatic" TTL exposure.
Use the #4103.52 dual sync cord to connect two DS Substrobes to your system.
All current model Ikelite strobes are fully compatible with this housing.
Existing DS Substrobes may require circuitry updates.

- Non-Ikelite Strobes.
-
Non-Ikelite strobes can be used, but they cannot provide eTTL exposure or be adjusted
manually through the housing. Special sync cords
are available to connect non-Ikelite strobes from Nikonos, Inon, and
Sea & Sea.
The optional #9571.3 features a 1" (2.5cm) ball for attachment to the top of the release handle.
This provides a mounting point for Ultralight, TLC,
and other non-Ikelite arm systems.

- Lighting Options for Video Recording.
-
Light is essential to bringing out the vibrancy and colors of underwater life in your video. Several options
are available to add a video light to this system:
The DS161 Movie Substrobe combines the warm, even coverage of our famous Substrobe DS160 with a
powerful 500 lumen movie light. This is a perfect way to add performance without adding bulk.
Click here for more information on the DS161.
The Pro-V8 LED Light is a compact and affordable 500 lumen video light. It easily doubles as a focus light
and is compatible with any still or video system.
Click here for more information on the Pro-V8.
The Pro Video Lite 3 is the ultimate in output and angle of coverage. Available in 50W or 100W halogen
versions. A 100° spread is great for shooting with wide angle lenses. The rechargeable battery pack
attaches directly to the bottom of the SLR tray with just two screws.
