Product Features in Detail

The deal with polycarbonate
A naturally transparent element, polycarbonate can transmit light as good as glass. Aside from being durable and heat resistant, this material is known for its superb color stability. These elements help add to the vibrance and the quality of each picture that you take.

Compatible lenses
The PT-E12's integrated lens port is suitable for the following M.Zuiko Digital Lenses: 12mm f/2.0, 17mm f/1.8, 25mm f/1.8, 45mm f/1.8, and the ED 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 EZ.

Don't screw up with this mount
There are limitless combinations that you can attach to the built-in screw mount. You can select from a number of compatible filters that you use to add vibrance and colour to every image. You can combine these with the PTMC-01 Underwater Macro Conversion Lens for close-up shots or the PTWC-01 Underwater Wide Conversion Lens for improved panoramic coverage.

Underwater colour correction
The housing's white balance control capability helps in correcting the blue filter caused by the water. This function eliminates the blue hue that may dominate in your photos and videos.

Flash details on the flash
Aside from it giving additional brightness, the case's built-in flash can also be used to trigger external flash units such as the UFL-1, the UFL-2, and the UFL-3 granted that they are connected using the PTCB-E02 dual fiber optic cables.

Neutral buoyancy
The PT-EP12 has neutral buoyancy for easier handling and balancing of the entire set-up underwater, especially with increased water pressure.
