NAUTICAM A7S Mk3UNDERWATER HOUSING
Nauticam is the leader in producing intuitively designed precision manufactured aluminum underwater housings for the Sony a7 camera line and continues to innovate with the new Nauticam A7s Mk3 housing. The Nauticam A7s Mk3 Housing is designed to maximize the video-centric capabilities of the Sony A7S III camera while maintaining it's strong still image potential. The NA-A7SIII is built around the N100 port system that is shared with the rest of the Nauticam housing lineup for the Sony full-frame mirrorless a7 series.Mission Control
Nauticam engineer's Mission Control design philosophy means controls are intuitively placed where they are needed most regardless of their position on the camera. The NA-A7SIII features a double thumb lever within easy reach of the right handle that triggers the AF-ON and RECORD controls of the camera. A thumb lever on the left side toggles the PLAYBACK button. The back panel of the housing provides access to all other rear camera controls including a multidirectional pad.Vacuum Check and Leak Detection System
The Nauticam vacuum check and leak detection system is shipped with NA-A7SIII as standard equipment. With the addition of the Vacuum Valve this monitoring system provides constant updates on the water tight and safe-to-dive status of the housing. A simple color coded LED lighting system lets the user know that the vacuum is solid, or that the housing is losing vacuum. Leak detection is built into the same circuit, so if there is water intrusion, an audible and visual indication will occur. The Nauticam system is temperature compensated, eliminating false alarms caused by a change in outside temperature, or from a camera heating up on an action packed dive.Key features of Nauticam A7s MK3 Housing:

The design is optimized for very small dimensions and lightweight. You do not find any other light on the market which is as small and powerfull than the Video 8M CRI.
The complete set (light, bracket, diffuser) ads only 0.14kg to your gear.
Tough Design
The LED can not break and has almost unlimited lifetime.
Thanks to its overtemperature protection, the light can also be used outside the water.
Li-Ion Battery
The Video 8M CRI uses a rechargeable Li-Ion battery pack which offers much higher power density and less weight compared to NiMH batteries. The Li-Ion batterypack also offers better performance in cold water conditions than NiMH batteries do. The batterypack can be easily exchanged within a few seconds.
The wall adapter accepts 110V to 240V AC. Exchangeable adapter plugs allow worldwide use.
Charge Display
An eight stage charge level indicator gives you the charge level while charging or diving.

The U-B 100 is a special version of the U-B housing. It has a wider front glass and allows in combination with the C-A 77 adapter the use of lenses with a filter thread of 77mm. This means you can use your professional digital SLR camera like the Canon EOS 5D Mark II and Mark III, EOS 7D, Nikon D1, D2H, D2X, D200, and similar cameras, with most of the professional wide angle lenses currently on the market.
This enables you to use wide angle lenses with a focal length of 16mm (equivalent to 35mm film or full frame sensor) without problems.
Please note: All lenses used with this housing must have an internal focus.
Lenses with a smaller filter diameter can also be used in this housing as long as they have an internal focus. You just need the right step-up ring.
If weights are inserted into the housing, underneath the camera, it becomes even easier to reach the maximum depth of 20 m / 60 ft. Experienced photographers have confirmed, that the autofocus continues to function perfectly. As you descend, the air is pressed into the camera. Due to this, the pressure inside the housing will remain the same as the surrounding water pressure. (this is the reason why Ewa-marine housings are so safe to use: implosions are impossible). Due to this, we have to start the dive with a suitable amount of air inside the housing. The foam pads supplied with the housing are part of this air “reservoir” and additional air should also be blown into the housing.
The U-B 100 housing is manufactured from double laminated PVC and has an integrated, optically neutral flat glass port. You can also use the internal flash.
It has a pair of non-corrosive and seawater resistant clamping rails which fit together for perfect sealing. They tighten by means of three screw knobs.
Extreme Underwater WiFi Extension Cable
The Underwater WiFi Extension Cables permits an action camera’s 2.4 GHz WiFi and Bluetooth signal to be extended underwater. This means that users can perform any normal remote control function such as controlling the cameras or viewing a live preview using the camera’s App.
No direct connection is required to a camera, Apple or Android product however the modules at each end of the cable must be mounted in close proximity to surface and underwater devices to work. As the interface is wireless, the camera’s underwater housing remains un-compromised and so the system can operate down to the specified operational depth of the housing.
The cable is 6 metres/20 feet long. The system is compatible with both GoPro cameras and the DJI Osmo Action Cameras.
The underwater housing VXF3 is a 10-meter depth housing for the Canon XF300 and Canon XF305 digital camcorders. Specifically constructed for these camcorders the VXF3 housing is manufactured from double laminated PVC and has an integrated, optically neutral flat glass port.
The VXF3 underwater housing is not only perfect for snorkeling or shallow diving but also sandy, dusty, humid or foul weather conditions. This housing will give your camera the best possible protection while being fully operable.
The closing mechanism, which has proven itself for more than 40 years now, has a pair of non-corrosive and seawater resistant clamping rails which fit together for perfect sealing. They tighten by means of knurled thumb screw knobs.
Straps at the bottom of the underwater housing allow weights to be attached for perfect buoyancy under water.
It is supplied in a handy yellow carrying-case which has a water-proof interior and zippered side-pocket.
Make your camera to an underwater camera.
The underwater housing for the Canon EOS C300 and also the Canon EOS C500 has a depth rating of up to 10 meters.
Designed specifically for the EOS C300 and C500 camera the V300 UW-housing is manufactured from double laminated PVC and has an integrated, optically neutral flat glass port.
The straps at the bottom allow weights to be attached for perfect buoyancy under water.

The NA-E2 sets the standard as the lightest and smallest raw-capable cinema housing ever produced. Nauticam has been a leader in cinema housings with offerings for RED, ARRI, Canon, PhantomFlex, Sony and now Z Cam.
The NA-E2 uses the N85 port system, shared with Nauticam’s other MFT platform cameras which allows for easy transition to the NA-E2 from other MFT Nauticam systems. The N85 system also provides access to Nauticam’s line of professional premium optics such as the WWL-1 and CMC-1/2.
A dedicated record lever is located on the right side of the housing within easy reach of the adjustable ergonomic handles. 1/4″-20 size mounting threads are located on the top and bottom of the housing for easy mounting of cinema accessories.
The E2 supports Sony NP-F series batteries and the NA-E2 matches this compatibility up to and including the FP-970.
As with the NA-BMPCC2, the NA-E2 allows for the internal mounting of a Samsung T-5 SSD drive as recording media making the transition from capture to edit seamless.
The Z Cam E2 requires an external monitor and Nauticam produces several options for both SmallHD and Atomos monitors. The NA-E2 features both an M28 and two M-16 bulkheads supporting both HDMI 2.0 (M28) and HDMI 1.4 (M16) connections.
