Olympus owners waited four long years for a successor to the revolutionary E-1 camera, and they were not dissappointed with the flagship E-3 with it's 10MP sensor, blazingly fast 11 point AF, live view, 5fps shooting speed, and standard environmental sealing.
Legendary Olympus quality, a growing line of 'designed for digital' lens options, improved battery life and advanced controls make the E-3 the camera of choice for anyone considering a full featured SLR.
The end result of this meticulous attention to detail is a small, light, functional and durable housing that will serve you faithfully for many years to come.

Priority: Size and Weight
The Seatool OME3 underwater housing for the Olympus E-3 is machined from pure, solid blocks of
aluminum to produce a light weight yet rugged package that will offer many years of service,
yet keep weight to a minimum.
Small and light enough to hand carry on aircraft, it's the perfect tool for the travelling diver faced with strict airline weight restrictions.
At just 180g (6.3oz.) underwater weight with camera & lens*, the Seatool OME3 offers exceptional underwater balance and can easily be held with just one hand. |

Priority: Ergonomics Because the housing body conforms so closely to the camera, the housing attains nearly neutral buoyancy (slightly negative) for effortless underwaterhandling handling.

A newly redesigned hand strap makes gripping the OME3 easier and more secure than ever!
