UNDERWATER CAMERA EQUIPMENT BUYING GUIDE - HOUSINGS

NAUTICAM

Nauticam is our top brand, made from aluminum, 100 meters waterproof, and extremely ergonomic. Almost all buttons have been relocated, and the optics that Nauticam produces are of excellent quality. We are a Nauticam dealer and Pro service center.

One of the best manufacturers in the field of underwater photography, Nauticam stands out from the competition with its housings and accompanying accessories. Nauticam underwater housings are machined from a solid block of saltwater-resistant aluminum alloy using precision technology that is accurate to the millimeter. This makes them resistant and robust.

IKELITE

We have an Ikelite underwater housing for almost every common camera. Take photos at depths of up to 60 meters!

Transform your own camera into a true underwater camera with an Ikelite underwater housing. We offer these waterproof housings for the most popular types of cameras, including compact cameras, DSLR cameras, and mirrorless cameras. To use different lenses on your underwater camera (DSLR or mirrorless), various ports are available.

There is a port for every wide-angle or macro lens. To prevent distortion in photos, a dome can be attached to a port. Suitable accessories are displayed for all our underwater housings.

ISOTTA

Isotta is an Italian brand that produces high-quality aluminum housings. The Isotta housings feature a distinctive red color and are available for most mirrorless and compact cameras, as well as GoPro housings.

These housings have a maximum depth of 100 meters and can be equipped with a vacuum system if they are fitted with an M16 bulkhead and a flash trigger.

AOI

AOI underwater housings combine high-quality materials, smart design, and years of expertise. While the AOI brand is still relatively new to many users in Europe, this manufacturer has actually been building underwater housings for Olympus / OM System cameras for decades — including the well-known housings for the Olympus TG series, like the popular TG-7.


What many don’t know is that AOI also produces housings for other camera models, such as the OM System OM-D E-M10, the GoPro Hero 13, and even the Sony A7 IV. In addition to housings, AOI offers a wide range of accessories, including strobes (like the Q1 and Ultra InTeLi UIS-P1), wet lenses, video lights, and practical tools like optical cables and magnifying viewfinders.


If you’re looking for reliable, affordable underwater gear backed by decades of experience, AOI underwater housings are a smart choice.for compact cameras such as the Canon G7X III and the Sony RX100 VA, as well as some Sony APS-C cameras. We often recommend these housings. They are fairly ergonomic, frequently equipped with a vacuum and moisture control system, and very easy to use. They are compact and lightweight as well!
