Moorestown, NJ – SeaLife is introducing their new Sea Dragon 2300 Auto Photo-Video-Dive at the upcoming DEMA (Dive Equipment & Marketing Association) tradeshow. The 2300 Auto features 2300 true lumens of brightness and an ideal color temperature ranging between 5000k and 6000k, with a wide 100° beam angle. The new Sea Dragon 2300 Auto also offers two unique features, Auto Brightness Mode and Auto Flash Detect Mode, to enhance your underwater diving and imaging experience.

With the 2300 Auto’s built-in photocell sensor, the Auto Bright Mode automatically dims the light from 100% to 10% depending on distance, this will preserve your eyes’ natural low light vision and also the battery life. From the four brightness options, simply select the Auto feature and the light will regulate brightness based on proximity between the light and the object. If pointed at a close range like a gauge or a computer, the light will dim to a 10% brightness, and when directing the light long distance it will automatically adjust the light to full power. This feature can be easily over-ridden by selecting a different brightness option of 100%, 50%, or 25%. The Sea Dragon 2300 Auto also includes Auto Flash Detect Mode for underwater still-image photographers, which turns the light off for two seconds when an external flash is detected to eliminate undesirable shadows, color shifts and backscatter.

Powered by a rechargeable 7.4 lithium-ion battery, the light burns for a full hour at constant brightness and full power with its new 6x CREE XP-L LEDs, and can quickly adjust between four brightness options: 100%, 50%, 25%, and Auto with its single button operation. The Sea Dragon 2300 Auto is depth rated down to 330ft/100m. The dual O-ring battery compartment is completely sealed and independent from the Sea Dragon’s electronics, so the light will not be compromised if there is accidental water intrusion.

Similar to all Sea Dragon Photo/Video/Dive Lights, the 2300 Auto can easily be expanded with Flex-Connect Arms, Grips, and Trays. Sea Dragon lights are universal and can be easily mounted to any camera or arm system using an optional Flex-Connect ball mount adapter (SL995). SeaLife also offers a cold shoe mount for the Sea Dragon (SL991). SeaLife also offers a handle for handheld use (SL998).
