Isotta Underwater Camera Housing for Canon EOS R5

The new Canon EOS R5 promises a revolution in photography and cinema. By employing new technologies, including artificial intelligence for AF and an image stabilizer that comes with up to 8 stops* of protection against vibration, Canon aims to make users forget what they knew about Mirrorless cameras. 45-megapixel photos at 20 frames per second, 4K/120P full frame video and a choice of ISO 100-51200. This camera promises outstanding photos in any conditions. With the built-in, always-on Bluetooth Low Energy connection, establishing a fast Wi-Fi connection with a smart device and reviewing your shots already on the way back is a snap.

*8 stops based on standard CIPA tests with RF 24–105mm F4 L IS USM at a focal length of 105mm.

The housing respects all the key points of Isotta’s line of housings: one-handed opening, double O-ring seals for greater safety, the use of high quality materials and the made in Italy craftsmanship. The housing was created to follow the lines of the camera, resulting small and manageable, while ensuring complete control of camera functions and absolute freedom in the use of accessories.

MAN BEFORE MACHINE!

The focus in the study of the housing goes to the diver who decides to use it. The comfort in the use and management of the machine in water is a fixed point, studied in every detail. The handles are ergonomic, adjustable and interchangeable*. if necessary; the housing is compact and lightweight, so you won’t tire your arm too much and have an excellent control over stability.

All buttons are conveniently reachable from the grip position of the handles ensuring maximum management of the camera with minimum effort. The rear back offers a full view of the camera screen so that you can shoot in live view unobstructed and in comfort and it detaches completely from the front body so that it is easy to insert the camera and perform operations inside the housing. The presence of the viewfinder allows you to take pictures framing in the classic way and to replace it with a magnifier. The closing knob is Single-hand actionable.

MORE AND MORE CUSTOMIZABLE!

Supplied with only the connections for the optical fiber, the housing has been designed with three M16x1 connections and one M24x1 connection, for total freedom in the choice of the conformation of the equipment.

When ordering, you can select your preferred lighting control system choosing between Trigger, Syncro N5 or S6 and your right port system. Through the different combinations between ports and extension rings it is possible to use most of the lenses on the market. Various accessories can be used by means of an M8 hole located at the top of the case and two M6 threaded holes located at the bottom. To make it even more unique, have your name or logo engraved.

SAFETY IS IMPORTANT!

The locking pins on the back are made of stainless steel and penetrate the shell for added strength and security. The housing is made of aluminum, resistant and anti-corrosion, anodized in the unmistakable red color. The classic double o-ring seal is on all moving and removable parts ensures an optimal watertight seal. The camera is held straight, centered and in place by a mounting plate with a safety catch, which slips nimbly into the housing. No risk of sudden infiltration. A red humidity alarm inside the case is powered by a user-replaceable battery and instantly signals an increase in humidity in a critical area. Watertightness is guaranteed up to a maximum depth of 100 meters.
