Underwater Photography Housings

Sea and Sea MDX-PRO Mk III

FOR CANON 1DS Mk III

This digital SLR housing is the result of our pursuit performance and high reliability.

Uses a lightweight and durable aluminum body that can withstand even the most severe shooting environments

The aluminum material used in the MDX series housings realizes a body that is both lightweight and strong. Because we envisioned photographers’ harsh usage environments, the body was successfully brought to an even higher level of perfection through the implementation of anodized aluminum processing. The all-new high-rigidity, high-durability, high-precision MDX series demonstrates the highest levels of performance under a variety of shooting conditions.

Manual adjustment is possible without releasing the grips

Designed for easy operation so you can comfortably reach the main dial and quick control dial with your fingers, while keeping your hands on the grips. Delicate operations are possible even while you are looking through the viewfinder. The larger diameter of frequently-used dials allows you to change the shutter speed or aperture value with a light touch while supporting the framing. This frees you, the photographer, to concentrate only on the perfect chance for a great picture.

TTL converter connector employed as standard

The included 6-pin wired connector accepts the optional YS Converter/C. The converter works with the YS-Series strobes to provide automatic TTL flash adjustment.

*The converter requires the 5-pin Sync Cord/N for connecting to a strobe.
*The MDX-PRO Mark? housing comes from the factory with these bulkhead connectors: one type-N (2-pin wired) connector and one 6-pin (6-pin wired) connector.
*To use two SEA&SEA YS-Series strobes with the factory-equipped bulkhead connectors, you must use the 5-pin Dual Sync Cord/N.
