Scuba Digital Camera

For all Scuba diving enthusiasts looking for relevant information on underwater camera housings and other scuba gear, you need to speak with experts on scuba diving. When it comes to underwater camera housings, they can be an important part of a scuba diver’s photography equipment, especially for professional photographers.

The types of housings and prices can widely vary. Some can be bought for around $100, and others can be over $6,000, for professional grade scuba divers. But if you make your living with underwater photography, the investment is well worth it, for that shot of a lifetime.

Professional level underwater camera housings:

Top Dawg:

Top Dawg’s line of camera housings offers a newer design that has the ability to fit over 180 Sony cameras. It features a larger 3.5 inch monitor back, optical glass front port and a new hard anodized finish from aluminum construction. It is one of the world’s best entry level underwater video systems, suitable for the professional at a price around $2700.

Subal:

Subal produces a top notch line of camera housings to fit different brands of cameras and offers top level construction and features like two lens mounting options that allow for wider lenses, which many models don’t offer. While their prices are twice the Top Dawg line, Subal has a loyal following among the professional underwater photography experts, even at over $6,000.

Gates Underwater:

Gates Underwater camera systems are some of the top of the line camera housings offering an assortment of camera housings to fit many of the most popular cameras. Defining themselves as “bullet-proof”, and good down to over 400 feet, these top notch housings are available through authorized dealers, and it is hard to find pricing on the internet, which may tell you how much they may cost. Many professional photographers use Gates systems, and they are a leader in the industry of the high level underwater housings.

Semi-Professional and Beginner level:

Ikelite:

Ikelite underwater housings are made for the top brands of cameras, such as Canon, Nikon, Olympus, Sony and Fuji. These are considered mid range, around $1500, so semi-professionals can get a dependable housing that provides professional performance to rival more expensive products. It offers an assortment of interchangeable lens ports and exceptional optical qualities.

Fuji:

Fuji has come out with an affordable line of digital compact cameras that comes with a dive kit good to depths up to 130 feet. For under $400, you can take professional grade digital photos, which makes this an affordable starter housing.

Olympus:

Olympus has an underwater housing line that can dive around the 130 feet level, and allows digital photography underwater with a wide variety of their digital camera line. With ports designed for wide angle and macro lenses, their underwater camera housing line allows diver to take photographs more naturally with a full time live view LCD.
