Mounting a focus light on a Ikelite DSLR Housing

[akscubainst]

Greetings,

I'm trying to figure out the best way to mount this focus light to the 1/4" 20 mount on a Ikelite DSLR housing. I'd like to use a short flex arm if possible. What do you guys recommend?

Thanks

The #9573.1 mount would allow the attachment of flex arm components (same sized as 3/4" Loc-Line) to the top of an SLR-DC housing. Unfortunately I don't have any recommendations on how to adapt the light itself to a flex arm.

I have a similar issue with the housing on my Olympus Tough 8000. My last camera had a standard hot shoe mount on top of the housing and I attached the focus light to it. The Ikelite housing for the T8000 does not have that feature and I need another mounting method.

I have the same focus light shown by the previous poster.

Thanks Jean! I'll pursue that mount and see what I can find, build.
