You can capture sharp, detailed photos and video at depths as great as 200' beneath the surface, thanks to the Ikelite 200DLM/B Underwater Housing with TTL Circuitry for your Olympus O-MD E-M1 Mark III mirrorless camera. An Ikelite 5-pin sync bulkhead and integrated TTL circuitry enable the connection of optional, external strobes. Ikelite DS flash units can be used in TTL or manual exposure mode, while third-party strobes will work in manual mode.
Ergonomic mechanical controls, including push buttons, knurled knobs/dials, and levers, afford access to virtually all camera functions. Built for durability, the enclosure is made in the USA from a corrosion-resistant polycarbonate and ABS plastic blend. It is light gray/white on the front, top, sides, and bottom, but clear in the back to allow you to monitor the O-ring seal and maintain your view of the camera's rear controls. An optional aluminum tray with a quick release grip handle or two will afford improved balance and handling while offering a way to attach optional lighting arms.
The housing ships without a required lens port and accepts various interchangeable dome and flat ports for a broad array of zoom, macro, and wide-angle lenses. For full compatibility, see the DLM Type B Port Chart.
