The Ikelite 6148.26 Underwater Housing w/ Canon SX260 HS Digital Camera Kit from B&H is a durable waterproof case that allows you to shoot underwater with your Canon PowerShot SX260 HS Digital Camera. It boasts a depth rating of 200' (61 m). Buoyancy is nearly neutral in fresh water. The housing features mechanical controls offering access to all camera functions. Dual 12-24 threaded mounts on the bottom enable the secure attachment of optional trays and lighting accessories (not included).
An included flash diffuser enhances lighting quality when the camera's built-in flash is utilized. A built-in flash is effective at a distance of 1-3' (0.3-0.9 m) from your subject in clear conditions. For optimum results, it's recommended that you use an external underwater strobe (not included). Ikelite strobes are far more powerful, recycle faster, and get rid of backscatter better than the camera's built-in flash. Instead of settling for flat, blue-green images, utilize the optional AutoFlash AF35 (not included) for easy automatic exposure. Or, you can add an optional DS Substrobe with EV Manual Controller (not included) for greater power and wider angle of coverage. A flash deflector is included with the housing to prevent the camera's flash from producing backscatter in the image.
For your underwater movies, bring out the truest colors day or night via a high-powered video light. For occasional clips, the optional Pro-V8 LED light (not included) is ideal when it comes to close-up work and focus assistance. For the serious photographer, it's recommended to employ the optional, extremely powerful PRO-2800 LED (not included) for optimal output and flexibility. A tray with release handle(s) (not included) is required for attachment.
