Ikelite Housing #6038.92

Molded of clear polycarbonate to provide seamless construction and corrosion proof performance. This “Clearly Superior” design provides full view of the camcorder, control functions, and back "O" ring seal for assurance the system is safe. Maximum operating depth is 200 feet (60 m).

Housing measures 11" (27cm) wide with the removable handle bar attached; 8" (20cm) high including the removable base; and 8" (20cm) deep including knobs and port. Weight above water is approximately 9 lbs. (4 kg) for easy packing, and very slightly negative in saltwater for stability and comfortable handling.

The Base removes instantly with a unique toggle clamp for traveling or attaching of the optional Pro Video-Lite 3 battery pack. The handle assembly detaches from the housing by removal of just two nuts for packing.

Controls for the Camera Control Dial, Manual Button and the LCD Screen Touch Pad provide full access to setting white balance and white balance shift.

Sony NP-FH40, FH50, FH60 & FH70 batteries are accommodated.
