Sony HDR HC7 and Sony Housing

8 posts
  1. Includes:

    1 Sony HDR HC7 Video Camera with all accessories, cables etc (used sparingly)

    1 Sony SPK HCC Housing with all accessories

    1 Sony HVL HIRL Video IR Light

    1 Sony VCL HGO0737Y Wide Angel Conversion Lens x0.7

    7 blank tapes (HD)

    3 spare batteries

    all original boxes and packaging

     

    Most Important: the problem with the Sony Housings is their buoyancy, so i have modified the sled (the cheap bit of plastic that the camera is mounted on before it is slid into the housing) and made one out of solid copper. This piece of copper is very heavy and nicely counterbalances the amount of air in the housing. Included in the deal, as are all the original "sleds" for various models that come with the housing.

     

    I simply prefer stills and i can not swim with the SLR housing and this....

     

    Camera details at Amazon:

    any reasonable offer accepted.

     

    FOB Montreal

    Well... would you be willing to sell just the housing, and for how much?

  4. Hi there.

    Could you please confirm the depth rating on the housing.

    Thanks

  5. RE: Depth

    Sony says 5 m/17 ft:

    I have had the housing deeper (in freshwater, it has never been in salt water), at up to 8 meters, without apparent problems.

     

    RE: Housing/Camera seperately

    I can sell housing and camera separate, just email me. I do have one person that i am waiting for, but he should be letting me know by Monday.

    Thank you for the reply.

    I thought I was mistaken when I looked up the Sony sight.

    Yes, Sony calls it a "Sports Housing", so technically it is not meant for diving, but i have had no problems with the housings (I have had an older model down to 14 meters), but most of my diving is made in rivers that are not very clear and not that deep, or have no visibility at 10 meters or deeper....

    It's Monday!

     

    (I emailed you just now, then saw somebody's offer to buy just the housing. Stay in touch...)
