Product description Capture detailed still images and brilliant 4K video of parrot fish, moray eels, coral reefs, and more with Aquatica's A5DMkIV Underwater Housing for the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV DSLR camera. It has a depth rating of 295', which is upgradeable upon request to 426', and features a Surveyor moisture alarm and pressure sensor that will alert you in the unlikely event of a breach in the waterproof seal. This version of the housing also includes a pre-installed vacuum check system, which allows you to confirm watertight integrity before the dive.
Dual Nikonos connectors enable the attachment of optional external strobes via sync cords. The standard, coated eyepiece offers a full view of the camera's viewfinder, and the coated Aqua View Finder, also included, offers an enlarged, enhanced view with 100% coverage, corner-to-corner sharpness, and dioptric adjustment. The housing provides access to virtually all camera functions via mechanical push-button, knob/dial, and lever controls. It also features an ergonomic design with 2 grips that offer improved handling and attachment points for optional lighting arms. Built for durability, especially resistance to corrosion, the housing is constructed from anodized, machined aluminum and stainless steel.
