Housing for Canon HF S10, HF S11 & HF S100 Video Cameras
Molded of clear polycarbonate to provide seamless construction and corrosion proof performance. This "Clearly Superior" design provides full view of the camcorder, control functions, o-ring seal and assurance the system is safe up to 200 feet (60 meters).
The system's compact size and weight make it a breeze to travel with. A complete housing and camera combination weighs less than 8 pounds (3.6 kg). The housing with camera installed is very slightly negative in salt-water for stability. Housing including base and handle assembly measures only 11" (27cm) wide; 8" (20cm) high; and 8" (20cm) deep. The housing accommodates Canon BP-807, BP-819 & BP-827 batteries.
The camera's LCD viewing screen can be seen directly through the housing back. Rear controls provide access to the camera's joystick menu-driven functions including custom white balance.
An included UR/Pro Color Filter provides color correction in tropical blue water with available sunlight up to 80 feet (24 meters). The filter attaches to the front of the housing's lens port and can be removed and replaced while underwater. An optional filter #6441.81 is also available to achieve more natural tones in green water settings.
The base removes instantly with a unique toggle clamp for traveling or attaching of the optional Pro Video-Lite 3 battery pack. The handle assembly detaches from the housing by removal of just two nuts for packing.
The housing port is threaded allowing the use of 67mm threaded macro lenses (not available from Ikelite). The camera's extremely large lens element prevents the effective use of external wide angle conversion lenses.
