RENTAL: Nauticam Sony FX3/FX30 Underwater Cinema Housing
The FX3 is the most popular underwater housing for cinema cameras in our rental program. It boasts cinema features in an impressively compact package. Pick it up in our shop in Los Angeles or have it shipped to wherever your production is. Combined with the Ninja V monitor package, it can record 4K ProRes RAW. This small cinema camera features Cine EI mode, anamorphic capabilities, and timecode sync in addition to the amazing video features you've come to trust from Sony. In the water, that means incredible imaging results in either pool or open water! Call today to find out more about lens and port options.
Key Features:
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.
Rotary Locking Latch
An oversized rotary latch seals the housing, and securely locks in place without risk of accidental opening.
Mission Control
Nauticam has a reputation of providing excellent ergonomics on all of their housings, and the NA-FX3 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.
Connectivity
The housing features an M24 & M16 bulkhead that supports the Nauticam HDMI 2.0/1.4 cable system which can be paired with supported external monitors and recorders such as Atomos Ninja V, Atomos Shogus 7 & SmallHD 502 HDMI and SDI.
Optics
Nauticam offers various ports for tons of lens options. In addition, high quality wide angle and macro lenses are also compatible with the camera.
Vacuum Check and Leak Detection System
The housing includes Nauticams Vacuum Check and Leak Detection System. When combined with M14 Vacuum Valve II, the system provides a constant update on the housings seal integrity. A simple color coded LED system lets the user know that the housing maintains the pressure or if the housing is losing vacuum. The leak detection provides an audible and visual indicator when there is a water breach. The system is temperature compensated, eliminating false alarms caused by a change in outside temp or from a camera heating up on an action packed dive.
