Surf Housing & Canon 1D Mark II N

3 posts
  1. Here is YOUR surf housing rig: a Del Mar Housing Projects custom housing, fits the following Canon bodies: 1DsII, 1DII, 1DIIn. May also fit 1DsIII and 1DIII bodies although I have not tried that. Includes dome port which I use for the 15mm fisheye for barrel and tube shots. Also includes two flat ports for 17-40 and 70-200 f/2.8 lenses. Note that this is a surf housing (above water) not a conventional underwater (diving) housing, i.e., it can take a pummeling in big surf and keep your camera safe and dry, and you can easily fire off a sequence at arm's length as that big wave closes over you, but in dedicated underwater (below surface) it is not as sharp as a conventional diving housing.

     

    Here are some barrel shots taken with a 15mm fisheye and 70-200 f/2.8 with this rig:

    Here are some topside shots taken just last week with the Canon 1D II N body, topside, to illustrate its use in topside and sports photography. 8 frames per second!
