Several years ago I picked up this underwater video housing thinking that I could modify it for my camera.
Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to get into the diving the way I had dreamed.
Also unfortunate is that I don’t know exactly what video camera it was designed for. My plan was to relocate the glands (controls) to match my camera. However, I never started that project, and the housing is still like new.
If anyone thinks that they might be interested in it for $50 plus shipping (and it’s heavy, at about 18#) I will take pix and measurements.
I think it could be made to work with most medium-sized camcorders, if you are willing to do the work to relocate the glands and epoxy the unused holes. It’s the standard aftermarket type, made from an aluminum tube with plexiglas ends. And it has a dome port in the front.
Actually, if your camcorder has a remote, you could probably leave the glands as-is, and just use your remote to start recording before you get in the water, and stop it when you get out...
If anyone is interested in pix and dimensions, post up and I’ll dig it out of the attic and answer questions.
Thx.
