Capture sharp, detailed photos and video beneath the surface with your Canon EOS 5D Mark III, 5D Mark IV, 5DS, or 5DS R DSLR camera in Ikelite's Underwater Housing with Dry Lock Port Mount. The front and back parts are depth rated to 200' and 50', respectively. The back can be swapped out for an optional one with a 200' rating for diving, allowing you to go much deeper. An Ikelite ICS-5 bulkhead connector with a manual hot shoe connection enables reliable electrical triggering of optional, external strobes. Use of an optional TTL hot shoe and circuitry will allow for TTL operation with compatible Ikelite DS strobes; non-Ikelite strobes will still work in manual mode only.

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's white on the front, top, sides, and bottom, but the clear Lexan back plate allows 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.

The housing ships without a required lens port, and accepts various dome and flat ports for a broad array of zoom, macro, and wide-angle lenses. For full compatibility, see the Port Chart. The Dry Lock (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.

Q: 4. Would this protect my camera from paintballs if I used it to film paintball? Was wondering if it can withstand paintballs pelting it. Would it just dent or would it shatter the 200DL?

A: The Ikelite 200DL Underwater Housing for Sony Alpha 1 or a7S III with Dry Lock Port Mount would be a good housing to protect your camera. I have not specifically seen it tested for photographing/filming paintball and cannot state if it would withstand direct hits from a paintball, but it would be one of the best protection options for your stated usage needs. If you wish, you can contact Ikelite directly with your inquiry about the experience with using their housings for use with paintball either by calling them at 317-923-4523 or by e-mailing them at ikelite@ikelite.com.

Q: 6. Would this be an appropriate waterproof case for the canon rebel t6i; would it fit? If not, what would be a better option?

A: The Ikelite 200DL Underwater Housing for Canon EOS Rebel T7i with Dry Lock Port Mount (200') is not compatible with the T6i. We could get for you the Nimar Underwater Housing for Canon EOS Rebel T6i. Keep in mind none of these housings include a lens port. You have to purchase a port to match the lens you are using.

Q: 7. Does this come with the dry port for my 16-35mm 2.8 sony GM lens ? I'm assuming i don't need to buy anything else besides whats mentioned above

A: Lens ports and lens accessories are not included with the purchase of the Ikelite 200DL Underwater Housing for Sony Alpha 1 or a7S III with Dry Lock Port Mount. As different users may use different lenses with the underwater housing, the lens port is not included and must be purchased separately. The Ikelite DL 8" Dome Port for Wide-Angle and Zoom Lenses in DSLR and Mirrorless Housings, B&H # IK75340, the Ikelite DL 28mm Port Extension, B&H # IK75028, the Ikelite DL 50mm Port Extension, B&H # IK75050, and the Ikelite 5509.16 Zoom/Focus Gear, B&H # IK550916, would be the lens accessories needed for use with the Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM Lens.

A: The Ikelite DS-51 Underwater Substrobe Head is a good user friendly strobe. You will need an arm, sync cord and Ikelite CT1K TTL Circuitry and the Hot Shoe Kit to use the strobe with the Ikelite 71702 Underwater Housing.
