anyone knows how can I install the HD monitor on the housing ?
I have a FX1 inside and I just saw 3 pin connector out on the right side ?
Also, I will buy a discovery II ultra pro power pack light and I'd like to know how should I connect
the lights on the housing to take control with the grip arms buttons.
Please help me !

Here what you need: The component output (shape see above) end in a Amphibico output-cable with a white 5-pin male connector ( 12" long) on one end which connects to a separate 5-pin female Amphibico cable connector (4-5" long) and the O-ring sealing unit with 5 pin wet connector (female) that goes through the housing. You need all those three cables to connect your monitor to the camera output. How your component plug looks like I cannot say, because your Sony FX1 may have a different plug.

A friend of mine has the Amphibico FXZ1 & Z1 combo.
He would like to replace the Z1 which is a great camcorder but quite old now.
Is there a newer camcorder which fits inside this housing maintaining all the functions?

I got a negative response from an Amphibico rep. in another thread: http://wetpixel.com/...36
He confirms what Steve is saying. Of course, given the value of such housing, I will give a try in the spare time with some different camcorder an maybe a little of DIY. Working in full auto could be a solution but I need a camera tray adapter.
