Steve Philbrook and Takuya Torii were at INON‘s booth showing off the new INON X-2 housing for the Canon 10D, 20D, and 30D digital SLRs. With its external gearing and magnetic focus ring, the X-2 has a look unlike any other SLR housing on the market. The X-2 ships at the end of November and is built to deliver (3-4 lead time).
INON also showed its Z-240 and D-2000 strobes, along with lots of accessories.
The X-2 features:
- support for Canon EOS 10D, 20D, and 30D
- 2 x optical sync bulkheads
- optional 5-pin bulkheads
- magnetic focus ring right on macro port (!)
- 67mm macro port thread for diopters, etc.
- aperture (rear) dial is reachable with fleshy part of thumb
- optical coated glass ports
- shutter locks to prevent misfire
- internal flash flips up and down
- 550 grams negative in the water
Looks sexy.

Comment(s):So, I assume that the housing is built to order, with a 3-4 week lead time…
The thing I am really interested in is the Inon external viewfinder. I note in the Nexus report that they are using this viewfinder as well. I’d really like to know the bore size of the part that penetrates the housing, and if this would fit the recent Sea & Sea housings. One can dream.
