Hello - I'm looking for a housing for one of my Canon bodies... I have 1dx's both mark 1's, a 1d mark4 and an original 5d... my preference would be one that my 1dx could fit in. If you have one available let me know asap as I leave for the Galapagos the 27th of February:) thanks for looking!

Housing for Canon 1dx mark I wanted

Hi pal,
I have a Nauticam 1dx housing - a couple of flaws but bare with me!
The housing itself is fine, but it needs new handles (just a left handle actually if you can find a single one) after I put the original of a different housing when the one off the other housing split.
The shutter release works fine but there is no spring on it. Doesn't actually affect performance in any way just doesn't feel quite as nice as a new one!
It has the vacuum system, but the release valve needs to be untwisted to release the vacuum. Again not really an issue in the real world.
It does have a prism attached inside the housing to allow for better flash synching, and I may still have the nauticam TTL flash trigger somewhere.
I have the macro 94 port which is for the 100mm L macro lens. available as well.
With all those flaws I'll sell the housing for £250 GBP and the port is another £250. I'll give a price on the fish trigger if I can check it still charges fine - not been used for about 3 years.
I'm based in the UK if that makes any difference, shipping will be at cost.
Let me know if you're interested as I'll want to put it all together and check it still works 100% before I ship anything out
regards
Mike
