Ikelite ULTRAcompact Underwater Housing for Canon PowerShot A1300 Digital Camera

Camera(s) not included

The Ikelite 6241.13 ULTRAcompact Underwater Housing for Canon PowerShot A1300 Digital Camera is a waterproof case enabling you to shoot beneath the water's surface with your Canon PowerShot A1300 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. Drop-in camera loading makes setup easy. The case is constructed from durable polycarbonate, which is clear to enable you to monitor the O-ring seal. Housing buoyancy is slightly positive in freshwater.

You can attach optional 46mm and 67mm macro and wide-angle lenses, such as the Ikelite W-20, to the housing's 46mm diameter lens port. For 67mm lenses, you'll need the 9306.81 Adapter (sold separately). Bayonet lenses are also compatible, but require the 9306.79 Adapter (sold separately). The WD-4 Wide Angle Dome is not compatible with this port. Macro lenses will enable extreme close-up shots, while wide-angle lenses increase your angle of coverage, allowing you to get close to your subject while fitting more in the frame. Both types of lenses cut down on distortion caused by the water, thus improving image quality.

To restore colors that get absorbed underwater, you can use optional external color correction filters. Use 6441.32 for blue water, or 6441.72 for 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 tray with single or dual handles. Such a tray provides attachment points for lighting.
