First in Industry: Built-in Optical TTL Converter MDX-D7100 Housing & Nikon D7100 Camera Review for Underwater Photography

Sea & Sea MDX-D7100 Housing Review

First in Industry: Built-in Optical TTL Converter MDX-D7100 Housing & Nikon D7100 Camera Review for Underwater Photography

After 5 years of solid and reliable use of my Nikon D300 and D300s camera & housing systems, I finally decided it was time for an upgrade. The new addition to the family would need to be a step up in capabilities and not just an increase in pixels. The choice wasn’t an easy one, as I have been holding out for the “New D400” or the next generation in the Prosumer Nikon camera lineup that isn’t full frame.

The Aquatica A5D Mk III is an excellent housing option for Canon’s 5D Mark III camera. I’ve been using the housing for the past three months on Southern California beach, kayak and boat dives as well as trips to Northern California and La Paz.

A Must-Read for Anyone Considering Housing a Canon 5D Mark 3

Ikelite 5D Mark 3 Housing Review

Ikelite 5D Mark III Housing Review

A Must-Read for Anyone Considering Housing a Canon 5D Mark 3

Ikelite is known for producing great housings for underwater photographers on a budget – whether compact or DSLR. I’ve been diving with an Ikelite 5D Mark 3 housing for about 9 months: beach dives, a warm-water trip, the occasional boat or kayak dive and even a few sessions in California surf. The housing has performed really well in these conditions for macro, wide-angle and split shots.
