Ikelite 200DL Underwater Housing for Canon EOS RP Mirrorless Digital Camera
Capture brilliant images and video at depths as great as 200' with your Canon EOS RP Mirrorless Digital Camera in Ikelite's 200DL Underwater Housing. Ergonomic mechanical controls, including extendable levers for the shutter and AF/MF button, afford access to all essential camera functions. Built for durability, the enclosure is made in the USA from a corrosion-resistant polycarbonate and ABS plastic blend. It is white on all sides with a clear back to allow you to monitor the O-ring seal and maintain your view of the camera's rear controls. The supplied aluminum tray with a left-hand quick release grip affords improved balance and handling, while offering an attachment point for an optional lighting arm.
An Ikelite bulkhead with a manual hot shoe connection enables reliable electrical triggering of optional external strobes via sync cords. Using an optional TTL hot shoe and the CT2K Canon TTL Kit #46072 will allow for TTL operation with compatible Ikelite DS strobes; non-Ikelite strobes will still work in manual mode only. An M16 threaded accessory port provides an attachment point for third party accessories including HDMI bulkheads.
The housing ships without a required lens port, and accepts various, interchangeable dome and flat ports for a broad array of lenses. For full compatibility details, see the port chart. The DL port system accommodates lenses with large diameters, and provides added security against leaks at the surface, thanks in large part to the included vacuum valve for checking watertight integrity before the dive. You'll need to purchase the separately sold pump in order to create a vacuum.
