The new Canon EOS R5 II is not a direct fit in the 200DL Underwater Housing for Canon EOS R5 (Mark I) # 71764. Differences in the thickness of the cameras prevent the use of the newer camera in the existing housing.
To use the newer Canon EOS R5 II in Housing # 71764, the camera mount and housing back must be replaced. This kit includes these two items. This installation does not support the use of the R5 II power on/off switch. We recommend using the camera's power save functions to conserve battery life when using the R5 II in the R5 housing. The new 200DL Underwater Housing for the Canon EOS R5 II provides improved ergonomics with the R5 II camera and accesses this important control.
This update is non-destructive. The original Canon EOS R5 (Mark I) can continue to be used in the housing with the original camera mount and back.
Camera mounts and backs are NOT interchangeable. It is important to use the correct mount and back with the correct camera to avoid damage to your camera or limited operation.
