Hi, can I use the sync cable with my godox flash? As my camera will be in water but not the flash. Thanks

Hey ! The Sony FE 28mm F2 with a Sony a7s II will fit in ? Thanks for the answer.

With the dome port for this housing what lens would it fit ?

Been planning to get one of these. Last summer there wasn't anything that would fit my A7ii. Apparently I shouldn't have sold the 28-70 kit lens though. I'll have to start looking for a new one. ;)

Which stative do you use?

Would love to review this enclosure!

Will this work for a 55mm Carl zeiss

Do u have any pics with this?

I know that the 55mm f1.8 from Zeiss fits but will it focus correctly since there is a gap between the lens and the housing? Thanks a lot in advance.

Well it should work good, other customers who have tried it, didn't complain or mention anything about not being able to focus.

I am using Zeiss Loxia 35mm f/2 for my a7rii. What is the distance from the mount of the camera to the glass of the housing? I'm afraid it will be too small for this lens.

Take Carl Zeiss 24-70mm lens and when lens is at 24mm that would be the distance.

Hey there, Unfortunately that lens will not fit, since it is larger in diameter and also length. You can see here the physical side by side compassion : www.dpreview.com/products/compare/side-by-side?products=sony_zeiss_fe_24_70_4p0_za_oss&products=sony_fe_35_1p4_za

Hey, well basically if you take 24-70mm F4 lens (Length: 95mm / Diameter: 73mm) that would be the snug fit and this is the biggest lens you can fit in there.

What camera are you putting in the housing? Do you have access to each control on the camera?

sorry for my ignorance, I just bought this case but have 2 questions. What is the cable connector for? (on minute 6.08) and also, do I have to change batteries for the leaking/red beeping alarm? thanks for your time.

Hey there, no problem. It is always good to ask before making a wrong purchase hahaha. The cable is this one (www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/97897-REG/Sea_Sea_SS_17100_Sync_Cord_5_Pin.html ) Sea & Sea 5Pin Nikonos SYNC cable 17100. The batteries no need to change in leak sensor, it is there for entire life of the housing. In case you accidentally activate it by spilling water on it, you can stop it from beeping by drying the strip with cotton cloth or napkin. And if the batteries die, than you can purchase a replacement here( meikon.com.hk/collections/others/products/leak-detection-sensor ).

Underwater Housing Review mine is the A7 II not S or R. and I've removed the rubber and even still it does. it only does work if I remove the lens. with no lens it then fits almost perfect. with zeiss 24-70mm with no filters does not work well. with 55mm it works but the 24-70mm does not.

I'm not sure you understood :) How are you going to control the focus, if there is no controls on underwater housing to do that? As for the second part of your question. None of the wide angle or fisheye lenses will work with a flat port, even if they could theoretically fit(which they can't) , they wouldn't be working as intended.

+Blackmagic1o0 And when the new model comes out and you decide to change the camera, the housing you previously purchased which was expensive will lose it's value( as for any second hand item ), then you might consider switching to something more affordable. Cheap doesn't always means bad. Technological leap in materials over the past 10 years, makes it possible to produce something strong that doesn't cost as much.
