For over 60 years, Ikelite has been built on the belief that you shouldn't have to spend a fortune to get the best photo and video results underwater. But there are a lot of people out there who may benefit from making you think you do.

Using the Canon EOS R5 as an example point, John talks through how Ikelite underwater housings stack up with more expensive aluminum alternatives.
