Flash Deflector

Post by Bric Martin »

I lost the flash deflector for My Ikelite Ultracompact Camera Housing. It's a very inexpensive piece, but I am having trouble buying a new one.

Does anyone have one of these deflectors that they would be willing to sell? I have a trip coming and would be very greatful!

Thanks! Ikelite is closed over the weekend. I will call them in the morning, I just thought I might get lucky here. The housing is for a Canon S95, It is the Ultracompact housing with a 3 inch port.

I called ikelite this morning. They said that piece had no part number, that explains why I was having the problem finding it. It is now in the mail and should be here in a few days!

What is a flash deflector? Like a diffuser?

Great service from Ikelite!

Last week they sent me a part that was very close to what I needed, but it was the wrong piece. I called on Monday and the correct part was mailed to me. The part arrived today, 2 days later! Thank you Ikelite!!
