The Isotta Underwater Housing for the Canon EOS R5 full-frame mirrorless camera allows you to capitalise on your cameras full potential and capture amazing pictures underwater. An easy to use, highly professional product has been created through techniques and innovations gained from years of experience. The perfect handling of the Canon EOS R5 housing is possible by means of adjustable handles crafted to match the human hand and make holding the camera very comfortable even throughout long dives.

The housing respects all the key points of Isotta's line of housings: one-handed opening, double O-ring seals for greater safety, the use of high-quality materials and the made in Italy craftsmanship. The housing was created to follow the lines of the camera, resulting in it being small and manageable while ensuring complete control of camera functions and absolute freedom in the use of accessories.

Man Before Machine!

The focus in the study of the housing goes to the diver who decides to use it. The comfort in the use and management of the machine in water is a fixed point, studied in every detail. The handles are ergonomic, adjustable and interchangeable. The housing is compact and lightweight, so you won't tire your arm too much and have excellent control over stability. All buttons are conveniently reachable from the grip position of the handles ensuring maximum management of the camera with minimum effort. The rear back offers a full view of the camera screen so that you can shoot in live view unobstructed and in comfort and it detaches completely from the front body so that it is easy to insert the camera and perform operations inside the housing. The presence of the viewfinder allows you to take pictures framing in a classic way and to replace it with a magnifier. The closing knob is single-hand actionable.

More And More Customisable!

Supplied with only the connections for the optical fibre, the housing has been designed with three M16x1 connections and one M24x1 connection, for total freedom in the choice of the conformation of the equipment. When ordering, you can select your preferred lighting control system choosing between Trigger, Sincro N5 or S6 and your right port system. Through the different combinations between ports and extension rings it is possible to use most of the lenses on the market.

Various accessories can be used by means of an M8 hole located at the top of the case and two M6 threaded holes located at the bottom. To make it even more unique, have your name or logo engraved.

Safety Is Important!

The locking pins on the back are made of stainless steel and penetrate the shell for added strength and security. The housing is made of aluminium, resistant and anti-corrosion, anodised in the unmistakable red colour. The classic double O-ring seal is on all moving and removable parts ensure an optimal watertight seal. The camera is held straight, centred and in place by a mounting plate with a safety catch, which slips nimbly into the housing. No risk of sudden infiltration. A red humidity alarm inside the case is powered by a user-replaceable battery and instantly signals an increase in humidity in a critical area. Watertightness is guaranteed up to a maximum depth of 100 metres.

Easy access to all key/main camera controls by means of clearly labelled laser-engraved longlasting buttons, even with gloves and drysuit gloves. An easy and quick release camera mounting plate allows the camera positioning and a lever locks the tray inside the housing. The back door has a large window anti-scratch glass for a fine camera display and optical viewfinder view and it is entirely detached from the front body to make easier the camera fitting. External viewfinders can be mounted, INON X-2 compatible.

One Hand Open/Close
The housing for the Canon EOS R5 camera is closed with Isotta's single handed one-turn knob. It's the only single latch closing mechanism in the DSLR housing market. It's fast, simple and secure thanks to its double steel pins at the bottom on the housing.

Ports and Extension Ring
A series of ports and extension rings are available. The removable port is fitted thanks to markers and a bayonet 120 mm connection to the Canon EOS R5. The interchangeable port bodies and extensions rings combine to allow the use of most of lenses on the market for maximum versatility and performance.

Lighting
The Isotta underwater housing for Canon EOS R5 camera offers the possibility to use external strobes via three standard optical M16 light ports as well as one M24 connection. This allows for easy mounting of any strobe and lighting set up.

Construction and Safety
Only the best materials are used to manufacture Isotta housings such as anodised aluminium, which is anticorodal and thermo-coated, and stainless steel. A long lasting product that requires easy and simple maintenance by the user. Dual high precision and quality O-ring seals protect and ensure a perfect and secure watertight for all movable and/or removable parts; a red alarm for humidity/water inside the housing is powered by a battery replaceable by the user. Working depth is 100 metres (330 ft). Different accessories can be fitted by means of M8 hole positioned on upper side of the housing and double threaded M6 holes located on the housing bottom side.
