Ikelite recently released a housing for the Sony ZV-E1, a vlogger-targeted full-frame camera that happens to make a great choice for underwater videography and photography. Now the U.S. company is performing the same trick for the ZV-E10, a similar camera in the Sony lineup that is equipped with a 24-megapixel APS-C sensor. Like its full-frame counterpart, the ZV-E10 packs a lot into a compact form factor, including 11fps burst shooting for up to 46 RAW frames as well as 4K/30p and 1080/120p video (though with some cropping).
Like its housing for the ZV-E1, Ikelite’s ZV-E10 housing features the company’s Dry Lock (DLM) port system and offers full control over the camera’s functions via hard-anodized aluminum buttons and a knob for controlling zoom when you install the appropriate zoom gear. The housing is the same size as that for the ZV-E1, but because the ZV-E10 is a slightly smaller camera, there’s space to install Ikelite’s USB Charging and Data Transfer Bulkhead—meaning the camera never has to be removed from the housing. Using the remaining ports, you can add a vacuum valve as well as install Ikelite’s DL2 DS Link TTL Converter and have TTL flash exposure with Ikelite DS-series strobes.
Shipping now, Ikelite’s housing for the Sony ZV-E10 is priced at $975.

Pre-Dive Checks
There is no greater assurance than being able to see your camera and o-ring seal through the back of the housing. Our signature open-groove design suspends the rear o-ring in a natural position that is easier to maintain and more reliable than forcing the o-ring into a channel. Once the housing is closed you can see the o-ring form a solid, waterproof seal.
We recommend adding the optional Vacuum Kit with 1/2″ Valve # 47012 to pull a vacuum on the housing and check for leaks prior to entering the water.
Construction
Our specially formulated ABS-PC blend housing is highly durable yet significantly lighter than aluminum. The light color keeps your camera cooler when shooting in warm, sunny environments.
Lens Support
Ikelite lens ports are the lightest on the market, yet robust and capable of standing up to rough surf.
We support a wide variety of lenses. Most popular zoom lenses and select focus rings can be engaged using simple gearing that puts adjustment right at your fingertips. Zoom and focus gears differ depending on which lens you are using.
Lens ports and zoom gears sold separately. Refer to the appropriate port chart for compatibility information.
Wi-Fi Transfer
Use the camera’s built-in Wi-Fi feature to download photos to another device without removing the camera from the housing. The Wi-Fi feature is only usable above water within close proximity to the connected device.
Compatibility
Unless otherwise noted, this housing does not accommodate the use of add-on grips, battery grips, eyepieces, LCD covers, or other accessories.
Differences in lens and control placement prevent other camera models from being used in or adapted to this housing. We are not aware of any other models which may be used in or adapted to this housing.
