Thanks for the clarification, Tom!
The Mk II series has a different button layout on the back. The Subal housing seems to account for this by using 5, separate buttons (3 for the Mk II, 2 for the original 1D/1Ds).

Posted by teddib on 03/23 at 06:29 PMHello divers,
I have found that the basic EXR-100 supplied by Subal does not work with the Canon 24-70 mm f2.8 L USM lens. This is not revealed on either Subal’s web site or the Marine Camera Distributors web site. Since discovering this followed by much communication with Subal and MCD, I have found that a special machined version is required. When ordering the dome port for this lens please make sure you order the extension ring, EXR-100, to be machined for the Canon 24-70 mm lens.
Regards,
TomPosted by teddib on 11/30 at 06:45 PM
