Molded of clear polycarbonate to provide seamless construction and corrosion proof performance. This "Clearly Superior" design provides full view of the camcorder, control functions, and assurance the system is safe up to 200 feet (60 meters). The housing with camera installed is very slightly negative in salt-water for stability.
The system's compact size and weight make it a breeze to travel with. A complete housing and camera combination weighs less than 9 pounds (4 kg). The housing with base and handle assembly measures only 11" (27cm) wide; 8" (20cm) high; and 8" (20cm) deep.
Included UR/Pro Color Filter provides color correction in tropical blue water with available sunlight up to 80 feet (24 meters). An optional filter #6441.81 is also available to achieve more natural tones in green water settings.
Super Eye magnifier for the optical viewfinder is included, providing enhanced viewing while wearing a diving mask.
The camera's large viewing screen can be seen easily using the External Mirror on the side of the housing. Just open the camera's LCD monitor, rotate 180? and fold back against the side of the camera. Actual image will be reversed when viewed through the mirror.
The housing port is threaded to allow the use of Ikelite W-20, Inon Type II, and Epoque 67mm threaded Wide-Angle Conversion Lenses.
The base removes instantly with a unique toggle clamp for traveling or attaching of the optional Pro Video-Lite 3 battery pack. The handle assembly detaches from the housing by removal of just two nuts for packing.
The housing accommodates optional Canon BP-2LH and BP-2L14 batteries.

Author: Scott Leapman (gadgeTT@twikiland.org) Pre-ordered with the intent of using on a dive trip. Arrived on-time and exactly as promised! More controls than expected, too.
