I modified external strobe connector (bulkhead connector) of Ikelite housing, and convert it to USB connection.

This modified connector allows to use Canon or Nikon cameras with CamRanger Wireless Tethering System, and get fool Menu control of the camera functions – remotely.

CamRanger is a stand-alone device that connects to select Canon or Nikon DLSR cameras with a provided USB cable. It creates its own WiFi network that your device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, Android, or Mac or Windows computer) can then connect to.

Mini USB type B Right angle connector perfectly fit into the housing.

Now easy recharge the battery without removing the camera. Especially when using a fat lens that obligates you to remove the port and lens in order to extract the body from the housing Nauticam NA-A6300 Sony A6300

Bulkhead connector M16, with Mini USB connector (http://www.diveandsee.com/products/underwater-connectors/dnc-2049), allows also to send files from memory card to external storage without open the housing.
