This housing requires the addition of a compatible lens port for waterproof operation. Lens port not included.

Product Details

The two biggest advantages of shooting underwater with an interchangeable lens camera are the variety of great lenses available, and the ability to connect an external flash directly to the camera. The Ikelite housing for the Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II is designed with these key points in mind to deliver a system that truly helps you take better photos in and under the water.

Photographing a fish at depth is like shooting a race car in the dark. A fast and reliable strobe connection is essential to getting the shot. The OM-D E-M10 Mark II is advanced enough to provide an external flash hot shoe, so it’s a no-brainer that electrical flash hot shoe and strobe bulkhead should come standard on the housing. If you've been shooting fiber optic strobes, you'll appreciate the lack of flash lag and extended battery life provided by a studio-grade flash connection. Cords are available for Ikelite, SEA&SEA, INON, or Nikonos strobes for ultimate versatility if you have multiple sets of strobes.

True Olympus TTL

Proper strobe exposure is a matter of microseconds, which doesn't leave much time to communicate between the camera and an external strobe. We are the only manufacturer that provides camera-specific TTL encoding for automatic exposure fine-tuned to the E-M10 Mark II's sophisticated flash exposure protocol. This information is communicated to the strobe via sync cord, which is the fastest and most reliable means of underwater signal transmission possible. The TTL circuit built into the housing and powered by the strobe for zero maintenance and no batteries to change. At this time, only Ikelite DS strobes are capable of powering the circuitry. SEA&SEA, INON, and Nikonos strobes will still enjoy fast recycle times and improved battery life, but must be used in manual exposure modes only.

In order to keep the housing as compact as possible and extend battery life of the camera, the built-in flash is not usable in this installation. Most popular strobes can be connected by sync cord.

The Lens Support You Want

It couldn't be more simple to change ports than this system—just press the port on and tighten three thumb screws. Feel positive reinforcement that the port is secure without any complex moving parts that can jam or break in a remote location.

This housing accepts a variety of ports to accommodate all of the most popular zoom, macro, and wide angle lenses from Olympus and Panasonic. Our custom optical grade acrylic domes components provide the color, clarity, and durability comparable to any glass at a fraction of the weight and cost. Lens port sold separately.

Great Handling

The E-M10 Mark II has been praised by professionals for its well designed control set. We grow this control set for underwater, providing larger controls and push buttons which are easy to access even with thick gloves. All controls are located as close as comfortably possible to the original location on the camera to reduce the need to re-learn your camera and develop new muscle memory. Control symbols laser engraved into the back of the housing will never peel off or fade even with years of use.

The camera's large, super-bright LCD screen is viewable edge-to-edge through the back of the housing. A built-in magnifying viewfinder includes specially optics to provides a clear view of the camera's EVF when wearing a dive mask. The standard viewfinder removes easily for the attachment of our beloved Straight or 45° Magnifying Viewfinders.

With a system of this caliber, a tray with handle is essential for the attachment of lighting and comfortable handling in a wide variety of shooting scenarios. This housing includes a balanced aluminum tray with our signature quick release handle for easy attachment and removal of strobes and video lights. This unique handle is curved slightly to fit the nature curvature of your hand, and features a soft over-mold which makes it a delight to hold. The complete tray and handle detaches with the removal of two nuts for packing or to attach the optional Tray with Dual Handles.

See the O-Ring Seal

An o-ring works best when it's true to its original form. Our signature housing design eliminates the dreaded o-ring groove which traps dirt and twists the critical main seal. For added reassurance, there's no substitute for looking through the clear back and inspecting the actual o-ring seal once your housing is closed. Special polycarbonate blends allow us to create an extremely strong yet clear and lightweight enclosure. Polycarbonate is fundamentally corrosion-resistant for easy maintenance year after year.

We are proud to offer the only housing and lighting system for the Olympus E-M10 Mark II that is 100% designed, built, and tested in the USA.
