Aquatica 35000 Panasonic GH5 Housing with Vacuum Kit

Description

Aquatica Panasonic GH5 Housing with Vacuum Kit & either Nikonos, Ikelite or Optical Bulkheads

The Aquatica AGH5 housing is built with high quality materials and craftsmanship. Building on the initial Aquatica GH4, the GH5 version has improved ergonomics, a versatile port system, a rugged yet compact design. Self-aligning controls Another great improvement over the previous AGH4 housing is new self-aligning controls. With the AGH5 housing you do not need to align the controls on your camera before closing it. The On-Off and the Focus mode levers are spring loaded and designed to ''find their own way'' once the housing is closed. Ergonomics The Aquatica AGH5 housing has a new Shutter lever design, this gives a much easier access to the front dial control knob. As the ISO and WB on the camera are key controls for video shooting, two levers were positioned right under your thumb for quick access to these important camera functions. The AF/AE Lock lever and the shutter lever were brought even closer together on the AGH5, this allows simultaneous operation even for people with smaller hands. To also benefit from the great button customization on the GH5 camera, the programmable Fn2 and Fn5 were designed with large buttons and are positioned right at your fingertips. Flash triggering options Aquatica prioritized a lower profile and more compact housing. The AGH5 housing comes standard with a new improved and self-powered flash trigger when ordered with Optical connectors. This flash trigger is powered by two lithium coin cell batteries that will give you a minimum of 15,000 flashes per set. The OPT version is designed to trigger strobes optically by firing low power consumption LEDs. The AGH5 housing optical bulkhead plate can be swapped to accept a Nikonos or an Ikelite style connector as an option. The Aquatica AGH5 Vacuum Kit housing has three options for flash connection: #35000-OPT-VC - Dual Optical connector with LED flash trigger #35000-NK-VC - One Nikonos connector #35000-IKE-VC - One Ikelite connector Please ADD your preferred flash option in the comments section when ordering. Surveyor moisture and vacuum sensor (included) The Aquatica AGH5 housing comes by default with the Surveyor moisture and vacuum monitoring sensor circuit installed at the factory. This housing option also includes the pressure extracting valve and pump. A visual and audio signal will alarm you should any of the O-ring become damaged or hindered by sand, hair, or any foreign objects that would compromise the sealing integrity of the housing. All that is required are a few simple steps for your peace of mind and knowledge that your equipment is safely protected from the environment. Viewfinders The Aquatica AGH5 is supplied with a compact eyepiece. This high quality and coated optical finder gives a bright and full view of the view finder. For those seeking the ultimate viewing experience, the AGH5 is compatible with the optional Aqua View Finder, available in straight or 45 degrees version. Among the best in the industry, they can easily be installed in a matter of a few minutes by the user. The enlarged and enhanced image provided by the Aqua View Finder is second to none in clarity; it provides the photographer with tack sharp corner to corner viewing of the camera view finder for composing and critical focusing. Safety Latches Aquatica have incorporated Amphibico’s latching system to the AGH5. This straight forward push, rotate and locking latch has been used on over 10,000 Amphibico and Aquatica housings for decades now. Its rotary cam action, coupled with an additional security mechanism means that logically, any unintentional opening is prevented from happening. This latch system is arguably one of the best closure system ever designed for an underwater housing. MAIN FEATURES OF THE AQUATICA AGH5 HOUSING
