Product Information
The SeaLife Flex-Connect Action Camera Adapter (SL996) is a black polycarbonate mounting adapter that attaches a GoPro, insta360 or DJI action camera to any Flex-Connect accessory, including the Cold Shoe Mount, Grip, Handle, Trays, Ball Joint Adapter or Flex Arm. It uses the camera's own three-pronged mount with standard M5 screw threads, weighs just 0.7 oz (20 g), and includes a stainless steel acorn nut.
Who it is for
This adapter is for underwater photographers and videographers who already shoot with a SeaLife Flex-Connect tray, grip or arm setup and want to add an action camera to the rig. It is especially useful for shooters who want video and stills at the same time: pair it with the Flex-Connect Cold Shoe Mount to position an action camera directly above a SeaLife DC-series or other underwater camera, so one hand-held set captures both. Snorkelers, divers and pool shooters using Flex-Connect grips or handles can also use it as a simple quick-release mount for a standalone action camera.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this adapter work with cameras other than GoPro?
Yes. The Flex-Connect Action Camera Adapter uses the universal three-pronged action camera interface, so it is compatible with GoPro, insta360 and DJI action cameras. It connects using standard M5 screw threads with the camera's own mount and thumb screw, so any action camera that uses that common three-prong fitting can be attached to your Flex-Connect grip, tray, handle or arm.
What comes with the SL996 adapter?
The package includes one Flex-Connect Action Camera Adapter and a stainless steel acorn nut. The thumb screw is not included, since the adapter is designed to use the mount and thumb screw that ships with your action camera. No tools, arms or trays are included, so you will need a Flex-Connect accessory such as the Cold Shoe Mount, Grip, Handle, Tray or Flex Arm to attach it to.
Can I aim the action camera left or right once it is mounted?
No. The adapter is forward facing and does not rotate left or right on its own. If you need to angle the action camera off axis, SeaLife recommends adding a Flex-Connect Flex Arm or the Flex-Connect Ball Joint Adapter (SL995) between the adapter and your tray or grip, which gives you the extra aiming range.
Which Flex-Connect accessories does it attach to?
It clicks into the Flex-Connect Cold Shoe Mount (SL991), Grip (SL9905), Handle (SL998), Ball Joint Adapter (SL995), Flex Arms and the Flex-Connect Single, Dual and Micro Trays. It is ideal with the Cold Shoe Mount, which positions the action camera directly above a SeaLife DC-series or other underwater camera.
