The unique design makes the MDX-D800 one of the most ergonomically designed housing on the market today
Two Fiber-optic cable sockets
By attaching the VF180 (#46112) or the VF45 prism viewfinders (#46111) (magnification ratio of 1.2x) to the housing, the magnification increases by 1.2x and entire field of view can be seen at the same time. Recommended for users committed to strict composition and focusing.
With both hands on the grips, further improved ergonomic design provides access to such controls as the main command dial and the sub-command dial the both of which are necessary for manual photography not to mention controls for video function.
By inserting the Fiber-optic Cable into the housing connector, an external strobe will be optically connected to the camera’s built-in flash enabling full-featured strobe photography and creative lighting expression.
Comes with an optical viewfinder 0.5x as standard. Other interchangeable viewfinders are also available (optional). The quick shoe makes the camera easy to install and remove from the housing. Built-in leak sensor immediately alerts you to water ingress. Depth rating of 100m/330ft makes the housing ideal for tech diving. *1 The housing is not equipped with any strobe connector when shipped from the factory. Use Fiber-Optic Cable(s) when connecting external strobe(s). Optional Sync Cord 2-pin Connector (#50122) is required if you wish to use a conventional sync cable. *2 External monitor housing such as Wahoo Monitor HD for SONY CLM-V55 can be used.
