An Ikelite bulkhead with a manual hot shoe connection enables reliable electrical triggering of optional external strobes via sync cords. Using an optional TTL hot shoe and the Nikon TTL converter will allow for TTL operation with compatible Ikelite DS strobes; non-Ikelite strobes will still work in manual mode only.

Ergonomic mechanical controls, including push buttons, dials, and levers, afford access to all essential camera functions. Built for durability, the enclosure is made in the USA from a corrosion-resistant polycarbonate and ABS-plastic blend. It is white on the front, top, sides, and bottom, but clear on the back so you can monitor the O-ring seal and maintain your view of the camera’s rear controls. The supplied aluminum tray has a left-hand quick release grip for improved balance and handling, and offers an attachment point for an optional lighting arm.
