Overview & Features
Sea Frogs SF-TG6 Housing
The Sea Frogs SF-TG6 housing was specially created for Olympus Camedia TG-6 Digital Camera. The SF-TG6 housing is
manufactured to the highest professional standards of function, style
and durability. It is depth rated to 60m/195 feet and is fully
functional with ergonomically designed and labeled controls. With this special design case, every key of
inside Olympus TG-6 can be pressed to control freely as you want.
The Sea Frogs SF-TG6 housing is ideal for outdoor and
underwater
photography. Underwater photographers can dive or snorkel and capture
all the excitement of this fascinating world, while outdoor
photographers also have the option of capturing the action of activities
such as white water paddle sports, sailing, boating, surfing, fishing,
hunting, backpacking and camping.
The Sea Frogs SF-TG6 housing is shock
resistant and protects the camera from water, sand, dust, frost and
other damaging elements. The SF-TG6 housing was designed to
be compatible with a complete accessory system, enabling photographers
to enhance the quality of their images.
The dedicated design maintains access to all camera controls,
including a rotary lens-ring dial, zoom lever, push buttons for menu
access, and a large lever-type shutter button. The housing also permits
the use of the cameras' built-in flash, and an included detachable
diffuser can be used to lessen vignetting and provide a more even wash
of lighting. Additionally, the front of the housing has 67mm filter
threads to permit the attachment of color-correction filters or other
threaded lens accessories. A top accessory shoe is available for working
with an optional external flash, and the bottom of the housing also
incorporates three 1/4"-20 mounts for mounting an accessory grip or
handle.

Wide angle, macro + filters
The port features a 67mm thread on the front for the
easy attachment of external wide angle and macro wet lenses. Wide angle
lenses make objects appear smaller, so that you can fit more into your
frame underwater. Macro close-up lenses make small objects appear
larger, so that tiny creatures will fill your frame.
External macro lenses with 67mm threads from INON, SAGA, and other
manufacturers, can be attached directly to the front of the housing's
port.
Color filters replace some of the
reds, oranges and more natural tones that would otherwise be lost
underwater. Effective in relatively shallow, sunny conditions. Available
as CF-M67 for tropical blue water and CF-M67-M for use in green water
settings.
Lighting
If you're diving below about 60ft/18m or at night, we recommend
adding a light to help your camera focus and boost the colors in your
photos and video. In underwater lighting, brighter is better. Look for a
light with a high lumens rating and a very wide, even beam.
Flash
Due to the position of the camera's flash in relation to its lens,
the built-in flash is not suitable to illuminate photos under water. For
the best color and clarity, we recommend adding a filter, strobe, or
constant-on light. The built-in flash may be used to trigger external
strobes via fiber optic sync cord. Two ports are provided for the
connection of up to two fiber optic cords.
Built-in vacuum system
Sea Frogs housing has an optional vacuum leak check circuitry with valve
built-in. Just use the included pump to secure your housings against
leaks before your dive.
Vacuum system lets you clearly know if the housing is sealed before diving. This is important to keep yourdevices safe.
