The precisely engineered case is constructed out of a durable polycarbonate shell to closely contour to the E-PL7 body which keeps the system small, light and thin. The small dive housing keeps the system relatively unobtrusive and streamlined without sacrificing image quality, usability or depth rating. The case includes a monitoring window to easily detect any water penetration in the unlikely event of a housing seal leakage.
The PT-EP12 provides full access to all physical camera controls of the Olympus E-PL7, with large buttons and a large shutter release with half press capability for easy operation underwater, even with gloves on, making it suitable for use in cold waters and at greater depths.
The PT-EP12 underwater housing system makes it easy to capture the beauty of underwater sea life with the E-PL7’s excellent high ISO capabilities or by adding additional light with the compatible Olympus FL-LM1 flash. Using strobe lighting underwater can reintroduce colours that are otherwise lost at depth (red spectrum). The housings integrated optical fibre connections, cold shoe mount, and standard tripod socket make it simple to add additional external dive lights and arms to the system for even greater lighting setups that achieve especially stunning results.
The Olympus PT-EP12 Underwater Case’s port is natively compatible with the following Olympus M.Zuiko lenses:
