Product details

An easy to use highly professional product has been created through techniques and innovations gained from years of experience. Easy access to all key/main camera controls, even with gloves, by means of clearly labelled lasered long life buttons.

The back door has a large window anti-scratch glass for a fine camera display and optical viewfinder view and it is entirely detached from the front body to make easier the camera fitting.

The housing stands with great stability due to sturdy and wide rubber feet located on the bottom. 

ONE HAND OPEN/CLOSE

It’s very easy to open and close Panasonic DMC-GH5, without efforts by the user thanks to the upper helicoid and the bottom centered pins; the camera is placed easily into the housing on a sliding tray that keeps the camera robustly in place.

PORTS AND EXTENSION RING

A series of ports and extension rings are available in dedicated section. The removable port is fitted thanks to markers and a bayonet 102mm connection to the Panasonic DMC-GH5 housing. The interchangeable port bodies and extensions rings combine to allow the use of most of lenses on the market for maximum versatility and performance. 

LIGHTING

Two fiber optic connections are placed in front of the built-in flash and allow the use of external strobes.
