Q: How deep do SeaLife cameras go?
A: The depth rating ranges from 75ft/23m to 200ft/60m depending on the
camera model. You will find the depth rating marked on the camera (or
camera housing), in the instruction manual or on this website.
Q: How much do they cost?
A: SeaLife cameras and accessories are surprisingly affordable when
compared to any other underwater camera system. When comparing SeaLife
against any other camera brands, don’t forget to consider the
cost to expand the camera with an underwater external flash and wide
angle lens. Please check with your local dealer for actual selling
prices.
Q: Do they take good pictures?
A: All SeaLife cameras are high-resolution cameras designed and tested
to take sharp, colorful pictures above and below water. SeaLife has
developed underwater exposure programs that restores lost colors and
automatically compensates the image exposure when using the optional
external flash accessory. The SeaLife Land & Sea exposure program
includes two underwater modes: Sea mode for automatic exposure control
and color correction; and Ext Flash mode for sharp colorful pictures
when using one or two SeaLife external flashes. Land cameras in a
waterproof housing do not include underwater modes that work
effectively with external strobes. Check out our full-color guide
"Great Pictures Made Easy" which offers helpful tips on
underwater photography.
Q: Are there any accessories available?
A: SeaLife Cameras are expandable with one or two external flashes and
a wide angle lens. Any experienced underwater photographer will tell
you how important it is to use an external flash and wide angle lens.
The camera, housing, flash and lenses are all made by SeaLife, so you
can be assured they work together as a system. Check out our
accessories page for more details about all the accessories we offer.
Q: Can I buy a SeaLife housing for my camera?
A: SeaLife housings are exclusively designed to work with SeaLife cameras.
Q: What is the estimated turnaround time if I send the camera in for
repair?
A: Please allow 2 to 3 week turnaround time for service. If you need rush service, please contact the service department and we will try and accommodate your needs.
Q: How can I purchase SeaLife if there is no authorized dealer near
me?
A: Some of the authorized SeaLife dealers on our Dealer Locator page sell online. Scroll through the list of dealers to find dealers with websites.
