The 6116.10 Compact Digital Underwater Housing for Sony Cyber-shot RX100 from Ikelite is a waterproof case enabling you to shoot beneath the water's surface with your Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 digital camera. It has a depth rating of 200' (60 m).
The housing provides access to all camera functions via mechanical controls. The camera's built-in flash is usable. The case is constructed from durable polycarbonate, which is clear to enable you to monitor the O-ring seal. Housing buoyancy is nearly neutral in freshwater.
You can attach optional wide-angle and macro lenses with 67mm thread diameters to the housing's integrated lens port. An example is the W-30 Wide Angle Lens. Wide-angles will increase your angle of coverage, allowing you to get close to your subject while fitting more in the frame, while macros will enable extreme close-up shots with clarity. Both types of lenses cut down on distortion caused by the water, thus improving image quality. Bayonet lenses are not compatible with this housing.
To restore colors that get absorbed underwater, you can use optional external color correction filters for blue or green water.
You can use optional external strobes to improve lighting, but they must be triggered as slave units. To soften the light of the camera's built-in flash and thus prevent backscatter and hard shadows, a flash diffuser and flash deflector are included.
The housing is equipped with a 12-24 thread with 3" (7.6 cm) spacing for the mounting of an optional aluminum tray with single or dual handles. Adding a tray and handles can improve the handling of the housing underwater, and also gives you attachment points for lighting.
