Phantom Flex in a Hydoflex housing

2 posts
  1. Prepping today at Arri London with the Phantom Flex - a couple of custom cables aside, it worked pretty well!

  2. Anyone interested in the set up, it's as follows:

     

    - Hydroflex RAC housing

    - Phantom Flex High Speed Camera

    - Cooke S4 primes

    - Master diopter set

    - C-Motion lens control

     

    With the following customisations:

     

    - Camera had additional breakout box for a 3 pin XLR power input. This provided voltage indicator as well as two 12v d-tap and 2 RS 24v connections

    - D-tap to 2 pin lemo connector to allow the underwater monitor to connect to the breakout box d-tap. This meant that rather than being powered by onboard batteries, the whole unit could be powered by block batteries on the surface saving time surfacing the housing to change onboards. On the surface, there was a y cord for power to allow block hotswapping

    - Adapter cables to allow the C-motion LCS to be used
