Camera Compatibility

This housing is only compatible with the Canon EOS 5D Mark III, 5D Mark IV, 5DS, 5DS R DSLR as shipped by the manufacturer. Unless otherwise noted, this housing does not accommodate the use of add-on grips, battery grips, eyepieces, LCD covers, or other accessories.

Differences in lens and control placement prevent other DSLR models from being used in this housing. We are not aware of any other models which may be used in or adapted to this particular housing.

Strobe Options

• Install optional Canon TTL Kit Product number 46070 for automatic TTL exposure with compatible Ikelite DS-model Strobes.  Ikelite DS-model strobes may be used with this system without the Canon TTL Kit installed, but will not provide TTL exposure.

Non-Ikelite Strobes

• SEA&SEA, INON, and Nikonos strobes with an electrical connection can be triggered in manual exposure modes using an electrical sync cord.  Strobes without an electrical sync cord connection cannot be attached to this system unless slaved off of a hard-wired strobe.

Ikelite Non-Digital Strobes

• Older non-digital strobes featuring an ICS-5 electrical sync cord bulkhead can be used with this system in manual exposure modes.

Fiber Optic

• Fiber optic only strobes are not compatible with this installation. An external strobe must be connected by an electrical sync cord.

Remote Triggering

• Strobes with remote slave capabilities may be triggered off of a flash attached to the housing by electrical sync cord.  Ikelite DS strobes support remote triggering using the Optical Slave Converter Product number 4403.
