Housing Features:

  • Support for Sony VX 2000 and Sony PD 150
     
  • Wide-angle lens and dome port combination for improved angle of view underwater
    .
    The dome port acts as a additional wide-angle converter. It compensates for the greater refractive index under water, which makes objects under water appear 25% closer than they do on land.
     
  • High-resolution LCD monitor (480 W x 234 H 2.5 inch screen) plus battery pack and charger for the monitor. The LCD monitor allows for extremely easy viewing while filming.

    The LCD monitor that comes with the video camera is not used as it creates an excessively bulky housing.  A lot of extra ballast is then required to compensate for the increased volume, resulting in a very heavy housing.
     
  • Construction is from transparent and robust acrylic, which allows you to view the workings of your camera, control arm seals and main o-ring seal.
     
  • Stainless steel latches and control arms are used so as to avoid rust or corrosion.  This will save much heartache and replacing of parts.
     
  • Each control arm has 2 o-rings to ensure an excellent seal
     
  • The camera is mounted onto a brass slide tray, stabilized by a clip-in latch for rock-solid stability.  The control arms therefore are in always the right place, every time.
     
  • A full range of manual controls including:
    record / standby
    power on / off
    zoom
    nd-filter
    auto / manual focus
    iris
    white balance
    shutter speed
    and of course LCD on / off control
     
  • Dual ergonomic, super-soft handles for increased comfort.  These are removable for packing.
     
  • Neutral buoyancy (or as you prefer)
     
  • 1-year warranty with excellent back up service.
     
  • Depth tested to 40 meters

We offer a 1-year warranty on all housings.  Camera equipment is not covered under this warranty.    Australian Underwater Video Housings is not liable for any leaking damage to either the housing or the videocamera inside.  We recommend you take your own insurance to cover loss or damage to your video or camera equipment.

Housing prices do not include cameras. We can purchase camera equipment on behalf of clients through our suppliers at very competitive rates, if requested.

To ensure perfect fit and exact control arm precision, we need the actual video camera to model the housing around.  If we do not have your particular model on hand, we will need you to send your camera to us, to use during production.

Note : Housings are custom made to house your specific model only. They are not designed to interchange with any other camera models. This is largely due to the differing location of camera controls. Modifications can be made on some housings at your specific request.
