Meikon/CamDive Sony A7 (A7R/A7S) Housing

8 posts
  1. I bought this CamDive housing for a project, it worked perfectly, and the project's over. The housing is in excellent shape, and it comes with the original box, extra O-ring, and gel. It fits the Sony A7, A7R, and A7S, but it won't fit the grip on the MkII models. The lens port is built-in, and it fits the 24-70 (what I used) and 28-70. They're $255 + tax new. How's $180 + shipping/PayPal fees sound?

     

    Here's the original Amazon link:

  2. Hi Josha,
    so the 24 - 70mm fits inside?
    I found that housing only with 28 - 70mm.....
    Could you use it complete in the wide angle range?
    Thought the 24 - 70mm would be longer and thicker than the 28 - 70mm......
    Can you post a uncroppt pic in 24mm?
    Thanks a lot,
    Wolfgang

  3. Sorry for the slow reply! I didn't have notifications set.

     

    Yes, the 24-70 does fit. If you look at the box in the photos above, it even explicitly calls out the 24-70. I only used it at 24, and I wished it would've fit the 16-35 :)

     

    Here's a sample RAW file from an A7R with this housing at 24. It's not the greatest pic, but you can see the image + metadata. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/361161/_DSC3861.arw

  4. Hi Josha,
    thanks for the pic.
    Could you use the zoom knob, or just pre zoom, and then use the 24mm during the dive without changing?
    All the ads i found are just naming the 28 - 70mm, so i was wondering......
    Regards,
    Wolfgang

  5. I pre-zoomed and used it at 24. I don't think the zoom works with the 24-70 unfortunately.

  6. Hi,
    oh thats not so great news....
    Hopefully i will get the ordered A7ii housing end of the week.
    Then i will know more....

    Regards,Wolfgang

  7. Any takers for $160?

  8. Is this still available? :)
