DX-6G Basic Set Underwater Camera
The DX-6G basic set includes the 16-megapixel outdoor camera and the underwater housing from Sea&Sea.
If you want to get into underwater photography, now is the perfect opportunity: the DX-6G compact camera with underwater housing from Sea&Sea is easy to use without compromising on quality.
The DX-6G offers everything you'd expect from a sophisticated compact camera, and then some!
The DX-6G has a razor-sharp 16-megapixel CMOS image sensor that delivers great photos even in difficult lighting conditions and records Full HD movies. The battery has a life of about 300 shots or a good 4 hours in standby, which is certainly enough for 2 dives. The housing is guaranteed waterproof up to a depth of 55 metres, optimal to hold due to good grip and also easy to use.
Because not only is the housing waterproof, but the camera inside the housing is also guaranteed waterproof to a depth of 14 metres. The camera is pressure-resistant up to 100 kg and shock-resistant up to a drop height of 1.6 metres. Reassuringly, the camera will work even if water accidentally enters the housing or if you drop the camera.
The camera itself is equipped with a 16-megapixel CMOS sensor that allows for razor-sharp images even in difficult lighting conditions. And has a Full HD 1920/30fps video, slow motion and timelapse function.
Stunning macro function
The DX-6G is ideal for underwater use as it has a microscopic macro setting that allows you to get within 1cm of your subject. Then your lens is almost in close contact with the subject! And that's without additional attachment lenses! Now you can bring even the smallest subjects into the picture as close as possible! To direct the light of the internal flash optimally onto your subject, a ring diffuser is included in the scope of delivery, which you can click on the housing under water and remove.
The Sea & Sea DX-6G camera has a special underwater programme to reduce the excess blue light in the images. A manual white balance adjustment and EV correction from -2 to +2 in 1/3 steps. The light sensitivity can be set to automatic or manual from 125 ISO to 6400 ISO.
The DX-6G camera is equipped with a 28mm lens with 5x zoom as standard. Optionally, a Sea & Sea 0.6x wide-angle converter WCL06 SS (SEA52152) can be clicked onto the housing, with which your focal length is then approx. 16mm. This lens attaches to the housing in no time underwater and is just as easy to remove. An optional lens mount (SEA52121) is available to safely stow the lens underwater.
