Ikelite has announced the release of two new housings:

The camera’s large viewing screen can be seen easily through the housing back. The laser touch control on the side of the LCD cannot be operated through the housing. Menu functions controlled by the laser touch control are inaccessible in this installation.

The base removes instantly with a unique toggle clamp for traveling. The handle assembly detaches from the housing by removal of just two nuts for packing. Other features include:

• Optical Glass Port.
• Rear-view LCD Monitor.
• Power on/off/Mode Control.
• Record start/stop.
• Zoom Control.
• Snapshot Control.
• Removable External UR/Pro Filter.

This very compact housing allows full access to all camera controls, and set up via an easy opening latch and drop in camera loading should make it simple to use. The housing allows attachment of color correction lenses or external “wet lenses.” It has a built-in flash diffuser, and can be used with external strobes.
