PRESS RELEASE
200DL underwater case for Sony a7 IV mirrorless digital camera, a7R V
Durable and full-featured waterproof case for Sony Alpha a7 IV and a7R V full-frame mirrorless digital cameras. Suitable for scuba diving, snorkeling, surfing, pool and any other application in or around the water surface.
Cases manufactured before January 2023 (serial number 77880 or below) require Updated Kit for use with newer Sony a7R V cameras.
Sony’s full frame system is more affordable than ever with this lightweight and durable housing
No other manufacturer makes professional functionality so accessible. Our cases were designed from the ground up to provide full camera control and connectivity for external strobe lights. Advanced features including TTL exposure, enhanced magnifying viewfinder and HDMI 2.0 support are available when needed.
Our DL series lens ports are optimized to be the lightest on the market with outstanding image quality. The materials chosen for our lens housings and ports are chosen to maximize durability and corrosion resistance while minimizing weight and travel costs.
Check before diving
There’s nothing more secure than being able to see your camera and o-ring through the back of the case. Our signature open-groove design hangs the rear o-ring in a natural position, making it easier to maintain and more reliable than tying the o-ring to the groove. When the case is closed, you can see the o-ring forming a sturdy, waterproof gasket.
We recommend using a metered pump to vacuum the housing and check for leaks before putting it in the water.
Build
Our specially formulated ABS-PC composite housing is highly durable yet significantly lighter than aluminum. Bright colors keep your camera cooler when shooting in warm sunny environments.
Lens support
Ikelite lens ports are the lightest on the market, yet sturdy and capable of withstanding rough ocean waves.
We support a wide range of lenses. Most popular zoom lenses and selective focus rings can be used using simple gears that put adjustments at your fingertips. The zoom and focus gears vary depending on the type of lens you are using.
Lens port and zoom gear sold separately. Refer to the appropriate port chart for compatibility information.
Wi-Fi transmission
Use the camera’s built-in Wi-Fi feature to download photos to another device without removing the camera from the case. The Wi-Fi feature is only available on water within close proximity of the connected device.
