DX-D200 Housing (Color: Black)
(Housing only)(Product No.06120) 1

200

SEA&SEA’s innovative design of the DX-D200 housing puts a tough aluminum body in a compact package that’s easy to carry. The DX-D200 is filled with features to make your underwater photography a pleasure.

The DX-D200 housing is built of a corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy coated with hard alumite for a more rigid body. It’s designed to fit the camera snugly so it’s compact and lightweight. Its high-quality leather-toned outer surface offers improved resistance to corrosion and abrasion, a durable surface that you can use for years in tough environments.

On the back, a newly designed pickup viewfinder brings every corner of the camera frame into clear view. You can easily sense when the shutter is pressed halfway to activate features without tripping the shutter. Inside, a leak sensor keeps watch for water inside the housing.

The DX-D200 comes standard with two type-N strobe connectors (2-pin and 5-pin) that are compatible with the popular SEA&SEA Series-YS strobes. The 5-pin connector accepts the optional TTL converter for Nikon cameras that enables automatic TTL flash adjustment for accurately lit flash photography. The DX-D200 is also compatible with SEA&SEA NX ports used by the NX housing series.

The DX-D200 brings one of Nikon’s most popular digital SLR cameras along with you to capture the highlights of your dive.

The included type-N 5-pin connector accepts the optional TTL converter for Nikon cameras. The converter works with SEA&SEA strobe to provide automatic TTL flash adjustment.
* The converter requires the 5-pin Sync Cord/N for connecting to a strobe.

Customizing the housing offers additional functions. You can replace the 5-pin strobe connector on the top of the housing with a 2-pin strobe connector for an additional cost, 89033. This modification provides two 2-pin connectors so you can connect two SEA&SEA Series-YS strobes.
* This modification does not support automatic TTL flash adjustment. It requires the 5-pin Sync Cord/N.

This housing accepts lens ports and other accessories in the NX housing series.
