I have used a Zillion's Led solution for many years now, works perfect with my Inons and 5D Mk2 in Aquatica housing . I use a normal Nikon bulkhead that I have drilled out for the Hugyfot Acrylic optical adapter.

Dag,
Completely off topic, but what s with the Swedgelock 90 degree elbow ontop of your housing? Using it as a vacuum port??

Here is some pictures of Canon 5D mk3 in a Aquatica 5D mk2 UWhousing.
It won't go all the way in, need to remove one of the aperture wheels. But still missing 5mm.

The new buttons on the top is not in the same place.



Mark III in a 5D MkII housing


I think more of the aperture wheels need to go, so the camera can get all the way in.

Here is the wheel I took out. And you can see that the functions wheel is almost the same place.

I think I can get the Mark III to work, but only take pictures. But until Aquatica get a new housing out. The main trigger have to be adjusted a little.

In Topic: Leak tester for my Aquatica UVhousing

Now I just have to figure out what thread my Subal has. It has an unused bulkhead, sure would be nice to know it won't leak before I dunk it.
How much vacuum do you pull when testing it? and do you plan to leave it at vacuum when diving?
Thanks!
I can get it up to -0,5 bar(-7,5 Psi). Then I leave it about 10-20 min to see if it drops. If you leave about -0,1 bar then you can't get it apart, nice to have when you put the rig through the splash zone.

Looks great, does the swagelok fitting have a stand NPT thread or did you have to use an adapter?
It have an orginal NPT thread on it.
