Ordering Ikelite housing, ports and strobes

5 posts
  1. Hi all

     

    I think I have finally made my decision spend my hard earn'd money on an Ikelite setup for my Nikon D80. I would appreciate it if you could check I am going to order the right things and if there is anything you think I should change.

     

    Housing #6808.1

    6" WA port #5503.51 for Tokina 12-24mm

    Flat port #5502.41 for Nikon 60mm

    DS-125 strobe #3944.75

    Sync cord #4103.51

    O ring - flat port (spare) #0105

    O ring housing(spare) - #0132.59 - NOT Sure as B&H site says this is also for video housing????

    Charger #4066.1

    Strobe Arm - Aquatica TLC arm set for ds-125 #17507

     

    I think thats it, could let me know what you think

  2. you might consider the 8" dome for better edge to edge sharpness. port body #5510.16 and "8 inch dome #5510.45. since you are spending the money why not get the best.

  3. I'm not sure about the O ring housing(spare) - #0132.59, As I sow the D200 have a new blue O ring, maybe its the same except the color but I'm not sure.

  4. I checked the Ike website and they list the o ring for your housing as part # 0132.59. It can be found at B&H, but it took me a while to find it when I ordered mine

  5. Hi Spen,

     

    Just a friendly suggestion. If you order this from a dedicated underwater photography dealer (pick one, I'm not endorsing any, just making a suggestion) they will be able to make sure you get the right bits. They will also be able to give you first person advice about how to put everything together - keep you from flooding your camera, etc.

     

    Cheers
