The new and the ‘not so new’ in action today on an underwater stills shoot in London
In the foreground is the brand new Nauticam housing for @nikoneurope Z8 camera system and the background is the workhorse @canonuk 5D4 camera system
Both housings have 30m long cables for hard wiring into a laptop for tethered control through @captureone software and the other 30m cable hard wires into surface strobes such as @profoto
This makes for super slick operation and creative control for your underwater stills shoot, message us for more information please

Completely impressed with the @canonuk R5C in the @nauticamhousings dive housing for this remarkable camera
As owner - operators of all our kit we always dive and test equipment for functionality, balance, image quality and general ‘in the field’ capabilities.
This mirrorless camera has the same EOS operating system as found in the C range of Canon cameras which translates to a superior experience for any underwater operator looking to have all the information and tools at their finger tip
We will have the housing on display at this years @wildscreenorg event so please swing by the Nauticam stand and take a look for yourselves, see you there!
