Underwater Housing for Nikon 1 J4 and S2

The Nikon WP-N3 waterproof case lets you shoot underwater with a Nikon 1 J4 or S2 digital camera paired with the 1 NIKKOR 11-27.5 mm or VR 10-30 mm lens. It carries a depth rating of 148 feet. Mechanical and button controls provide access to the zoom ring, mode dial, multi-selector, movie recording, playback, delete and menu functions while the camera remains sealed inside.

Included Wrist Strap and Front Cap

The supplied WP-AN1000 wrist strap secures the housing to your wrist during a dive. The WP-LC1000 front cap protects the lens port when the unit is not in use. A built-in cold shoe on top accepts optional accessories such as lighting arms. The camera’s built-in flash cannot fire through the housing but can trigger one or two optional SB-N10 underwater speedlights via fiber-optic cables sold separately.

Depth Rating and Lens Port Constraint

The 148-foot depth limit defines the maximum operating depth for this housing. The integrated port fits only the 1 NIKKOR 11-27.5 mm f/3.5-5.6 or VR 10-30 mm f/3.5-5.6 PD-ZOOM lens; other lenses cannot be used. All controls are mechanical, so there is no electronic communication between the housing and camera beyond the fiber-optic flash trigger ports.

Questions about this item

How often should the O-ring seal on the WP-N3 housing be inspected or replaced?

Inspect the O-ring before every dive for grit, cuts or flattening; clean with fresh water, apply a thin film of silicone grease and replace it at least once a year or after any impact.

What stops the 1 NIKKOR 10-30 mm lens from zooming fully at 148 ft depth?

External water pressure can stiffen the mechanical zoom linkage; rinse the housing after each salt-water session and exercise the zoom ring gently to keep it moving freely.

Does the polycarbonate body fog or overheat during long video clips?

The housing has no active cooling; in warm water the camera may hit its thermal limit sooner, so keep clips short and allow cool-down periods between recordings.
