Product description With your Sony Alpha a6000 camera in Fantasea's FA6000 Underwater Housing, you can capture 24MP photos and Full HD video of pygmy seahorses and coral reefs at depths as great as 200'. The enclosure features a moisture detector and alarm that will alert you in the unlikely event of a breach in the waterproof seal, so you can dive with peace of mind.
Dual fiber-optic ports enable the attachment of optional external strobes via the proper cables. One of these flash units could be placed on the cold shoe mount that sits atop the housing. Additionally, the FA6000 is equipped with an M16 port that allows for the installation of optional accessories and connectors, such as strobe bulkheads, HDMI video ports, or vacuum valves. The housing provides access to all essential camera functions via mechanical controls, including push-buttons, dials, and a lever. Built for durability, it is constructed from injection-molded polycarbonate that's resistant to shock and corrosion.
The FA6000 ships without a required lens port, and accepts interchangeable ports for various lenses. For full compatibility details, see the port chart.zuqssarfsbyxdwzqxrfwrfzbtxsszdeevac - Construction Details
