NA-R6III Housing
The Canon R6 Mark III is a serious hybrid powerhouse — blazing photo speeds (up to 40fps burst), Pre-Continuous Shooting, and some seriously capable video chops including 7K RAW recording. Add in dual card slots and a full-size HDMI output, all tucked into a familiar, weather-sealed body that carries the top-tier autofocus borrowed from Cinema EOS. Drop it into the Nauticam NA-R6III housing and you've got a genuinely exceptional setup for shooting underwater.

Meet the Canon R6 Mark III
The Canon EOS R6 Mark III brings hybrid shooting, advanced imaging, and refined handling together in one package built for both photo and video creators. At its heart is a new 32.5MP full-frame CMOS sensor paired with DIGIC X processing, delivering 7K 60P video, up to 40fps stills, and an improved Dual Pixel CMOS AF II with Register People Priority. Toss in 8.5 stops of image stabilization and support for both CFexpress Type B and SD cards, and you've got plenty of flexibility for how you store your files.

The NA-R6III Housing
The NA-R6III is Nauticam doing what Nauticam does best. All the essential controls are right there at your fingertips, so you never have to take your hands off the ergonomic handles. The N120 Port Lock II, Rotary housing lock, and dedicated RF mount Lens REL lever make setup quick and painless — more time in the water, less time fussing with your rig. The N120 port system handles both Canon RF and EF mount lenses, and Nauticam's huge range of ports and in-house corrective optics let you get the most out of the R6III.
Pop on an accessory vacuum valve and the integrated vacuum check and leak detection system keeps you posted on whether your housing's sealed up tight. There's even a vacuum reset switch tucked under the tray, so you can swap lenses or ports without opening the back of the housing. And it's ready to be customized however you like — optional Full Frame viewfinders for a better view, optical and electronic strobe triggering, and support for HDMI 2.0 and 1.4 monitors. Want to add more gear? The top surface has 1/4-20, M10, and M5 holes for monitors and lighting, and the bottom takes the 25218 Tripod Mounting Ball set.
Premium Professional Optics
Want the sharpest underwater shots possible? Nauticam's water-contact optics deliver. The FCP, WACP, and WWL lines step up your wide-angle game, while the MFO and SMC bring serious macro and super-macro power. And if you really want to get creative, the EMWL lets you shoot macro, wide-angle, or blend the two for something totally unique.
Mission Control
True to Nauticam form, the essential controls sit as close to the handles as they can get — which makes these some of the most intuitive housings you'll ever use. Our engineers put controls where your hands actually need them, not just wherever the matching button happens to sit on the camera. The dials have rubberized finger grooves for easy grip, and the levers are built to move nice and smooth.
Integrated Vacuum Check & Leak Detection
Peace of mind comes standard. The NA-R6III ships with Nauticam's vacuum check and leak detection system built right in. Pair it with an accessory vacuum valve (PN 25625) and you'll get constant updates on whether your housing is watertight and good to dive. A simple color-coded LED keeps you in the loop — solid vacuum, or losing it. Leak detection lives on the same circuit, so if any water sneaks in, you'll get both a sound and a visual warning. Best part? It's temperature compensated, so you won't get false alarms just because the water cooled off or your camera heated up during an action-packed dive.
