PRESS RELEASE
SeaLife Offers Color-Correcting Filters for Popular SportDiver Smartphone Housings
MOORESTOWN, NJ – SeaLife, the maker of the SportDiver Underwater Smartphone Housings for iPhone and Android smartphones, has added color correcting filters to their accessory assortment including the original Red color filter for most diving applications; a new Magenta color-correcting filter for green water; and a Yellow filter is available for Fluorescence and UV Imaging, and certain blue water applications.
The filters are designed to restore and correct for color-loss underwater, especially in the red color spectrum. They’re made of an optical acrylic that uses proprietary color pigments. The filters are most effective at depths of 10ft/3m to 60ft/18m and are easily attachable and removeable to the SportDiver optical lens frame while underwater. The filters fit all SeaLife SportDiver models, including the original SportDiver, SportDiver Ultra and the new SportDiver S.
The color filters may be used with or without external underwater lights, depending on the shooting distance and water conditions. The filter also serves as a protective cover for the SportDiver’s optical glass port.
A lanyard is included for attaching the filter to the housing to prevent loss.
