Nauticam Canon EOS R1 Underwater Housing NA-R1

The Canon EOS R1 marks a groundbreaking evolution by delivering the professional-grade features of the DSLR 1DX series to Canon's mirrorless RF-mount lineup. Built with professionals in mind, the R1 excels in autofocus speed and precision, maintaining exceptional image quality even in fast-paced action or challenging low-light conditions. Boasting Canon's brightest and highest-resolution electronic viewfinder (EVF) to date, along with revolutionary autofocus enhancements, the EOS R1 stands as a testament to innovation and is undoubtedly worth the anticipation.

The Canon EOS R1

The Canon EOS R1 is powered by a 24.2MP full-frame backside-illuminated stacked CMOS sensor with Canon's advanced Dual Pixel autofocus system. Its groundbreaking Cross-Type line-detection AF technology promises unparalleled autofocus speed and precision across Canon's mirrorless lineup.

The R1's electronic viewfinder (EVF) raises the bar, offering an exceptional 9.44 million-dot resolution on a 0.9x magnification OLED display, making it Canon's most impressive EVF to date. The optional electronic shutter minimizes rolling shutter effects and supports blackout-free shooting, while the first-curtain electronic shutter achieves an X-sync speed of 1/320, dropping to 1/200 with the fully mechanical shutter.

For video enthusiasts, the R1 delivers internally recorded RAW footage at up to 6K/60fps and supports 4K/120fps in compressed 4:2:2 10-bit formats. A pre-record mode of 3 or 5 seconds ensures you capture decisive moments in fast-paced action. Enhanced by a refined DIGIC Accelerator processor and improved image stabilization, the EOS R1 excels in producing exceptional video and stills, even in challenging low-light conditions.

Nauticam Optics

Pairing the R1's 24.2MP CMOS sensor with Nauticam's cutting-edge underwater optics is essential to harnessing its full potential. Whether using high-quality glass and acrylic dome ports, the revolutionary WACP series, or the new FCP system, Nauticam optics ensure unparalleled image quality, no matter the subject or conditions.

Enhanced Viewfinders

The Canon R1's 9.44M-dot EVF is elevated further with Nauticam's Enhanced Viewfinders, which provide crystal-clear edge-to-edge viewing in both angled and straight designs, ensuring comfort and accuracy underwater.

Flash Triggering

For lighting, the NA-R1 supports external flash triggering via built-in fiber optic bulkheads, with optional manual or TTL flash triggers. Additional bulkheads also allow for hardwired cable connections for maximum flexibility when using strobes that don't support fiber-optic triggering.

HDMI Output

The R1's clean 6K HDMI output can be transmitted to external monitors or recorders through Nauticam's HDMI 1.4 and 2.0 bulkheads and supported monitor housings, making it a complete solution for underwater professionals.

Vacuum Check and Leak Detection System

The Nauticam vacuum check and leak detection system comes standard with the NA-R1, ensuring unparalleled peace of mind for underwater photographers. This advanced monitoring system continuously updates the housing's watertight integrity and dive-ready status when paired with an optional vacuum valve. A simple, color-coded LED display allows users to instantly verify if the vacuum is secure or detect if the housing is losing pressure.

Integrated leak detection further enhances safety, providing both audible and visual alerts in the event of water intrusion. The system's temperature compensation feature prevents false alarms caused by environmental temperature shifts or heat generated by the camera during intense shooting sessions. With this robust technology, divers can focus on capturing stunning images, confident that their equipment is protected.
