The Ewa-Marine U-BFX100 Housing comes with an integrated glove for manually controlling the camera. The glove is designed for the left hand and allows you to cradle the camera and lens the way you would if using the camera without the housing. This helps you to operate the camera and lens manually for capturing photos using settings as per your requirements. 

The housing is designed to fit the bulky, professional digital SLR cameras such as the Canon 1Ds or the Nikon D2X, D200 and similar cameras. Smaller SLR cameras can still be used in the housing. The housing is manufactured from double-

laminated PVC and has an optical glass port. It is rated for dives of up to 15' depth.

Suitable for snorkeling and diving as well as sandy, dusty, humid or foul weather conditions, this housing will give your camera complete protection while remaining fully operational.

If the optional BF1 lead weight is inserted into the housing, underneath the camera, it becomes even easier to reach the maximum depth. The auto focus of the camera continues to function as normal, and as you descend, the air is pressed into the camera. The pressure inside the housing will remain the same as the surrounding water pressure, so you must start the dive with a suitable amount of air inside the housing. The foam pads supplied with the housing make up part of this air "reservoir" and additional air should also be blown into the housing, via the valve at the rear, to ensure that the maximum volume is being utilized.

The housing has a pair of non-corrosive and seawater resistant clamping rails which fit together for sealing. They tighten by means of screw knobs. The external flash that is commonly used on SLR cameras fits into the specially designed section on the top of the housing.

This housing accommodates a maximum 82mm lens filter size, and comes supplied with a threaded 77mm lens-to-port adapter ring. An optional 82mm adapter is also available (#CA82). This allows wide-angle lenses to be used with this housing. All lenses used with this housing must have internal focus.

Designed to fit digital SLR cameras such as the Canon 5D Mark II, 5D Mark III, EOS 1DX, the Leica S, or the Nikon D300, D800, D3, D4, and similar cameras.

16mm lenses can be used with full frame format cameras in this housing; cameras with APS size chips can use lenses as wide as 10mm.

Accommodates a maximum 82mm lens filter size.

Long lasting housing solution that is easy to maintain and packs in minimal space.

Q: 3. I'm looking for underwater housing that would accommodate my Canon 5D III, battery grip, 600EX flash and a 77mm lens (ideally up to 82mm). What reliable options would you recommend for this setup, without breaking the bank?

A: Ewa-Marine bag housings are a reliable option at a reasonable price when working in 20' of water or less. The housing is rated to 150' but water pressure will make it difficult to access the camera controls through the bag. The Ewa-Marine U-BXP100 is their largest housing. This bag is designed to hold an on-camera speedlight and could accommodate internal focus lenses with a maximum 82mm lens filter size. The housing includes the threaded 77mm lens-to-port adapter ring. Other optional port adapter rings including the 82mm adapter is available (#CA82). Wide-angle lenses can be used with this housing.The housing is designed for large DSLR cameras only. Use of a battery grip cannot be guaranteed.
