You can capture brilliant photos and 4K video of pygmy seahorses, sharks, and coral reefs at depths of 200', thanks to Fantasea Line's FA6500 Underwater Housing for the Sony Alpha a6500 and a6300 Mirrorless Digital Cameras. It 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. The FA6500 provides access to all essential camera functions via mechanical push-button, knob/dial, and lever controls. Built for durability, especially resistance to corrosion, it is constructed from injection-molded polycarbonate.
The FA6500 ships without a required lens port, and accepts various interchangeable, FML-series ports to accommodate an array of lenses. Additionally, the housing features a removable LCD hood to keep your camera's screen free of glare in bright conditions.
