FS: Subal housing for Canon 5D plus ports and accessories

Recommended Posts

I have moved up to a housed Canon 5D III system so I am selling my previous system. All parts of this housing package are compatible with Subal's Type 2/3 port system. Everything has been very well cared for and has never been flooded.

 

I would prefer to sell the entire setup in one package. Asking $1650 for everything listed below.

 

Canon 5D full frame camera body is also for sale upon request.

 

Please feel free to PM with any questions.

Well, this housing package is not getting any love, so I will consider offers for individual pieces of the kit. I expect the pristine GS 180 viewfinder would be a valuable addition to someone's existing rig.

 

P.S. The camera body has been sold.

Yes, they are type 2. I know that type 4 ports have a larger diameter, but I don't know how type 2 and type 3 ports differ.

I need to correct what I wrote above. At least some of the ports/extensions are type 3 according to the original product packaging. See below for details. Needless to say, each part in this housing kit works together with the other parts.

 

I have contacted Subal asking for an explanation of how Type 2 and Type 3 ports/extensions differ. I will report my findings when I get them.

 

Subal DP-FE2 Glass Dome Port - TYPE 2 OR 3 (not sure yet)

Subal Custom Focus Port for Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro - TYPE 2 OR 3 (not sure yet)
Subal FP-90 Flat Port - TYPE 3
Subal EXR-60 Extension Ring - TYPE 3
Subal EXR-33 Extension Ring - TYPE 3
Subal EXR-20 Extension Ring - TYPE 3

Hi Pete,

 

The EXR-33 and EXR-20 extension rings are still available. But because I've had a couple of inquiries regarding the entire housing package, I am going to hold off on breaking up the kit for the time being. Depending on the outcome of those inquiries, I will be in touch regarding the extension rings.

 

Regards,

 

Michael

Another update regarding the port types.... I have been in touch with Subal and I have it on good authority that ALL OF THE PORTS AND EXTENSION RINGS ARE TYPE 3.

 

The only complication is the DP-FE2 dome port. It is definitely a Type 3 port, but it is an earlier version that presents some compatibility issues with some later Type 3 housings. If you are using an extension ring, then the DP-FE2 works on all Type 3 housings. Otherwise it can work with modification. (I am trying to learn the precise nature of the modification, but at the moment I do not know. Again, I will report back if/when I am able to learn more about the mod.)

 

For what it is worth, Subal's Type 2 ports are a completely different animal. They are used on the smaller housings, such as Olympus EX1, Panasonic GH4 and Sony Alpha 7. But an adapter exists that makes the Type 3 ports/extensions that I'm selling compatible with Type 2 housings.

 

I hope this clears up any confusion, including any I've created! :)
