Photograph and record parrot fish, humpback whales, aquatic caves, and other wonders of the sea with your Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II camera in the Fantasea Line FG7X II Underwater Housing. This enclosure features a depth rating of 200' and a durable, shock/corrosion-resistant polycarbonate body to withstand the rigors of diving. Additionally, an included moisture detector alerts you in the unlikely event of a breach in the waterproof seal. Dual fiber-optic cable ports enable the connection of optional external strobes for better lighting that will greatly enhance your underwater images.

Mechanical controls on the housing afford access to all of the G7 X Mark II's functions. A built-in port with a flat front element accommodates the camera's 24-100mm f/1.8-2.8 lens (35mm equivalent). You can attach optional arms for strobes or video lights via the cold shoe mount on top of the housing. When shooting with the camera's built-in flash alone instead of using external strobes, the supplied diffuser can be added on to ensure that the flash will not create backscatter, glare, or hard shadows. The included, removable LCD hood blocks excess stray light from hitting the camera's monitor, in order to afford improved visibility.

Flash Connection and Use
  • Dual fiber-optic cable ports in a removable plate enable connection of optional external strobes, which provide enhanced illumination and color correction for better image quality
  • Camera's built-in flash fires to trigger external strobes as slave units
  • If using camera's flash without external strobe, put included diffuser over it to soften it and ensure that it will not create backscatter, glare, or hard shadows

Lens Port
