Overview / Product Description

Sea & Sea MDX-D500 Underwater Housing for Nikon D500 DX DSLR Camera



The Sea & Sea MDX-D500 Underwater Housing for the Nikon D500 camera is the most anticipated housing from Sea & Sea since the MDX-D300. The newly designed features of the MDX-D500 housing greatly surpass its predecessor. These new features include the compatible internal Optical YS Converter of the MDX-D500, as compared to the old external TTL converter connector of the MDX-D300. The MDX-D500 housing also has redesigned levers and luminescent buttons that increase their visibility while shooting in low light conditions.

The Nikon D500 HD-DSLR camera is a serious upgrade to the Nikon D300S with many improved features in a lighter camera body. The Nikon D500 has vastly improved sensor technology with a high-resolution 20.9 MP sensor, sports an Advanced Multi-CAM 20K AF system with 153 focus points, and can also focus in very low light conditions with its -4EV AF detection range, making it a great choice for underwater photographers.

Features:

  • Optical YS Converter Compatible
    • Converts the camera's TTL signal to a light signal. Both TTL and Manual Strobe control is compatible with Fiber-Optic Cable II (Not included).
  • Ergonomically Re-designed Levers
    • Shutter lever, AF mode lever, AF-ON lever, and movie-record lever all have been re-designed with ergonomic shapes.
  • Luminescent Buttons
    • Most levers and buttons will glow in dark environments.
  • External Port Lock and Lens Release
    • Conveniently switch lenses between dives without removing the housing back. Activate the Port Lock on the front of housing and push the Lens Release for quick and easy lens swap.
  • Diopter Adjustment Dial
    • The camera's diopter adjustment dial can be operated from the housing.
