MDX-D7100 Housing

Product Description

CAMERA COMPATIBILITY UPDATE:

THE MDX-D7100 HOUSING IS COMPATIBLE WITH NIKON'S NEW D7200 CAMERA BODY. THE OPTICAL YS CONVERTER/N1 IS ALSO COMPATIBLE WITH THE D7200 CAMERA.

EXISTING HOUSINGS WILL NEED A SLIGHT MODIFICATION TO THE LOCK RELEASE ARM BUT WILL THEN BE COMPATIBLE WITH BOTH CAMERA MODELS.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

Compatible wit Optical YS Converter/N1.

Compatible with the new Optical YS Converter N (#50126) which converts the camera’s TTL signal to a light signal. Both TTL and manual strobe photography is possible using a fiber-optic cable.

Compatible with both the VF180 and VF45 1.2x viewfinders

By attaching the VF180 (#46112) or the VF45 (#46111) prism viewfinders  to the housing, the magnification increases by 1.2x and the entire frame can be seen at the same time. Recommended for users committed to strict composition and focusing.

* You may encounter some difficulties accessing the info button function if VF45 is fitted. To avoid this problem we suggest using VF180 instead.

Port and Lens can now be changed without opening the housing

The port lock can be now activated from outside the housing and the housing is also equipped with a ‘lens-lock release’ button which allows the lens to be replaced without opening the housing. The port lock can also be activated from inside like previous Sea&Sea housings.

FEATURES

• Equipped with two fiber-optic cable sockets. With the camera's built-in flash raised and fiber-optic cables fitted, external strobes can be triggered as ‘slave units’ by the built-in flash.
• Every detail of the housing is precision machined. The housing is protected by a highly corrosion resistant anodized coating. All edges have been polished carefully for perfection.
• Controls all the Nikon D7100 essential functions underwater. (Bracketing button, preview button and function button are not operable from the housing)
• The multi selector (which is often used underwater) is the same design as the camera control and can be operated in the same way. AF areas and Focus points can be changed by depressing the selector. The multi selector control is located so that it is accessible with your hand on the grip.
• The camera's built-in flash can be activated and deactivated from the housing. (When the accessory light-shielding plate is fixed, this function cannot be used)
• Equipped with Accessory Port which can be used for HDMI output.
• The grip design has been significantly improved with the travelling diver in mind.  The grips are mounted with threadless fixings to facilitate easy mounting and removal.  The new design also alleviates corrosion build up around the fittings.  All fixings are available as spare parts.
• Fitted with a tripod socket on the centre underside of the housing.
• Equipped with the Optical Viewfinder 0.5x as standard. Other (optional) interchangeable viewfinders can also be used.
• The quick shoe makes the camera easy to install and remove from the housing.
• Built-in leak sensor immediately alerts you to water ingress.
• Depth rating of 100m makes the housing ideal for tech diving.
