Sea & Sea DX-5D Underwater Housing for the Canon 5D Digital Camera, Off White

The Dx-5D is made of a tough corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy with a hard alumite coating for extra rigidity. It is durable and ready to stand up to tough use. Its snug design keeps it compact and lightweight, and its leather-toned outer surface reflects the high quality of the camera it houses inside. On the back, a newly designed pickup viewfinder brings every corner of the camera frame into clear view.

You can easily sense when the shutter is pressed halfway to activate features without tripping the shutter. Inside, a leak sensor keeps watch for water inside the housing. The Dx-5D comes standard with two type-N strobe connectors (2-pin and 6-pin) that are compatible with the popular Sea & Sea Series-YS strobes. The 6-pin connector accepts the optional TTL converter for Canon cameras that enables TTL flash adjustment for accurately lit flash photography.

The Dx-5D is also compatible with Sea & Sea Nx ports used by the Nx housing series. The Canon EOS 5D camera inside has a full-sized 35 mm/1.4 inch CMOS sensor that provides the same light-exposure surface size as 35-mm film. It eliminates the slight telephoto effect created by smaller standard digital camera sensors and brings back the spacious feel of 35-mm film photography.
