Differing Port Compatability

4 posts
  1. This has probably been covered elsewhere on this forum, but..........

     

    Do any SLR / DSLR housings take ports from other manufacturers?

     

    Or to put that in the best Queens English, can Subal ports be used with any other housings, do nexus ports fit Aquatica, Seacam to Sea & Sea etc.?

  2. A port adapter is needed as EVERY housing has a different mount (thread size or bayonet size) and o-ring size.

     

    You can get port converters from various enterprising types though. I have two custom port converter rings.

    I'll do a bit of research and check out the options.

  4. For example, hugy offers adapters for different brands to use in their housings:

    There is a very good spanish brand:

    That sells adapters to use subal ports in sea&sea housings (I have at least three friends that use them and are very happy with them), ports etc... The other day they made a custom port for nikon 105VR in a week and a half...
