Cp 29 Posted January 20, 2012 Very sweet housing. Have you got one wet yet?Bob I spilled my gin&tonic on it in Vegas. Kidding. I have not. I can't wait to try it. The camera is sweet. Edward has had it in the water; here are some pics: http://nauticam.smugmug.com/HousingTests/NA-V1-test-Dec-2011 Cheers, Cp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JackConnick 76 Posted January 20, 2012 Awesome, especially the w/a shots. I noticed how you rented a rubber whale shark to come up under the dive boat, nice touch. OK, what's up with 10mm + Fisheye UWL-04 shots? A wet lens on a DSLR? Crystal sharp too! Spill Edward... :-) Jack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So send either of those to Colorado and baptize it in vino tinto. Bob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So send either of those to Colorado and baptize it in vino tinto. Bob Correct you are... I was cross thinking V1 and NEX-7. The V1 housing supports the SB-N5 flash unit inside the housing, hence how tall that housing is. Edward tells me that the flash is elevated enough that, with a diffuser, it's useful for macro shooting. That might be a good option for someone who does not want an external strobe to deal with. We can send as many as you want. What you do with them is your business. I thought he had NEX-7 images up, but I guess they are not posted yet. I'll keep my eye out for them.

Cheers, Cp I am really trying to work up some love for this camera. I does have fast AF and a 1/250 sync with the mechanical shutter. If the FT1 adaptor will fit in the housing/port, then the 40 mm DX micro lens could be an option. Bob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil Rudin 485 Posted January 20, 2012 To be clear Bob is off the topic of the NEX-7 camera and Nauticam housing and onto the Nikon V-1 and Nauticam housing which was brought up in error regarding the photo gallery. Phil Rudin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil Rudin Yes Phil, I was talking about the Nikon. People who know me know I am totally tangential. Thanks for the clarification. Bob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
