Underwater Photography Housings

Sea and Sea MDX-7D

FOR CANON 7D

Two Fiber-optic cable sockets

Simply by connecting the Fiber-Optic Cable (L-type) to the connector, the light of the digital camera’s built-in flash is detected and connected to an external strobe. This is considerably less complicated than setting up an electrical connector that requires detailed knowledge. It also eliminates any risks involved when the connector is submerged in water.

Suitable for taking both still images and movie

Unparalleled design provides easy access to the main dial and the quick control dial. Shutter speed and aperture can be adjusted without removing your hand from the grip. Button to activate live view photography and video is ergonomically positioned for easy access. While holding the grip, you can control AE lock / Index / Reduce lever and AF point selection / Magnify lever and AF start lever to check focus points and then press the start / stop button to record video. The setting button is also situated close to the grip for quick access to the button. Great functionality, engineering and ergonomic design make this housing exceptional.
