SUBAL ND800 Underwater Housing for Nikon D800 DSLR Camera - Type 3
The SUBAL ND800 is an aluminium housing for the Nikon D800 SLR camera. The ergonomic placement of all important controls provides convenient and comfortable handling of the camera functions. The camera is mounted on a saddle for precise positioning inside the housing. A 4mm main-O-ring and the SUBAL QuickLock system make it virtually impossible to close the housing if the O-ring is not lying correctly in its groove. Maximum security is assured.
Threaded holes in the base of the housing allow for the mounting of trays etc. A mounting plate with a threaded hole on the top of the housing may be used for a light-weighted aiming light. Generous shading of the LCD-monitor provides a glare-free view of the brilliant image of the camera monitor.
SUBAL offers 4 different viewfinder systems for this housing:
- The Standard-Viewfinder reduces the viewfinder image slightly to allow the whole frame to be viewed whilst wearing a diving mask.
- The GS-180 viewfinder and WS-45 angled viewfinders offer an image size equal to the cameras viewfinder. The GS-180 viewing angle is line of sight and the 360° revolable WS45 is 45°.
- The new Prism finder PS-30 shows the viewfinder image full sized with a viewing angle of 30°. The PS-30 has a long eye relief which is especially helpful for video shooting.
The viewfinder systems are interchangeable and can be mounted easily by the user.
As with all our products choice of materials, machining, surface protection and finish conform with SUBALs well known standards of reliability and workmanship.
All SUBAL ports with bayonet mount can be fitted to this housing.
