SEACAM compact SONY A7 III

Features

The SEACAM compact housing for the Sony A7 III sets new standards in design and ergonomics. Due to the special construction, the mounting of the camera is especially easy. The housing is milled out of a saltwater-proof light metal alloy twice hardened and high-value anodized.

Special longevity is achieved through the use of materials of only the best quality: stainless steel, anodized aluminum, premium synthetics as well as Helicoil threads.

Double sealing with seamless, high-quality precision O-rings protects all shafts and press buttons. The main O-ring is of a particularly strong dimension.

The titanium SAFETY LOCK fastening system safely secures both housing shells.

Our interchangeable viewfinder system includes 4 different viewfinders and can be exchanged without any tool.

The easy mounting system and the double O-ring sealing particularly secure the SEACAM front port connection with its bayonet thread.

Viewfinders

In order to see what you are shooting, SEACAM silver housings are available with different viewfinders. Even looking through the diving mask, special optics display a clear viewfinder image up to three times the normal size and makes image composition significantly easier for you. SEACAM viewfinders can all be removed very quickly for transport and can be exchanged without the need of tools.

Ports

A variety of lenses is indispensable for ambitious photography. The gauge and the interface for perfect images is the front glass. The SEACAM front port system has been valued as a benchmark for uncompromising image display quality for years.

The first class system is extremely diverse. Precise flat ports and perfectly adapted dome ports for wide angle lenses retain their brilliance underwater just like the super wide angle and fisheye lenses.
