Nauticam Sony A7 IV Underwater Housing
**Limited Stock Available
Nauticam sets a high bar of excellence in their underwater housings. The Nauticam A7 IV underwater housing is a top quality aluminum underwater housing designed with excellent ergonomics. This housing is smaller than a standard dSLR housing, has an excellent port lock system, and supports a huge variety of lenses. The bulkheads support different combinations of sync cords, external monitors and/or their highly recommended vacuum valve system.
Most people who use strobes with this housing end up getting the flash trigger, for faster firing through fiber optic cables. If you are shooting video, I'd recommend two underwater video lights. Almost everyone end up getting the optional vacuum valve. Last, but not least, keep in mind that ports are optional - you'll need at least one flat port or one dome port, depending on which lens you want to use.
Key Features:
HDMI Connectivity
The NA-A7IV housing features the larger opening, M24 bulkhead which allows you to use Nauticam HDMI 2.0 & 1.4 cables to connect to your recorders such as Atomos Ninja V, Shinobi & SmallHD 503
Mission Control
Nauticam has a reputation of providing excellent ergonomics on all of their housings, and the housing for the Sony A7 IV lives up to their name. Buttons, levers and dials are easily accessible and very intuitively located. Even while wearing thick gloves the housing controls are very easy to operate.
Patented Port Locking System
The locking lever has become a signature of the Nauticam brand. No twisting or threading action is required to mount a port, and it locks securely in place with this lever.
Integrated Vacuum Monitoring and Leak Detection
Combined with an optional vacuum valve (NAU-25624), this monitoring system provides constant updates on the water tight and safe-to-dive status of the housing via a simple color-coded LED lighting system. Green means go, safe to dive!
Other Features:
- Premium Professional Optics - The housing is built around the N100 Port System which supports a wide variety of lenses and ports. When using EF-Mount lenses, the N100 to N120 adapter is also available to further expand your options for your system.
- Strobe Triggering - Integrated fiber optic bulkheads and be used with the Nauticam Flash Trigger. Electronic triggering is also an option via Nikonos bulkhead.
