Ewa-Marine U-AXP Overview

The Ewa-Marine U-AXP Waterproof Case is an economical solution for using any autofocus SLR camera with a shoe-mounted flash near or just under the water's surface, manufactured from double laminated PVC and with an optical glass port.  It is rated for dives of up to 164' depth, perfect for snorkeling, diving, or generally sandy, dusty, and humid weather conditions.  The U-AXP gives your camera and flash the best possible protection while being fully operable.  When not in use, it is relatively light and takes up little space.

A pair of noncorrosive, seawater-resistant clamping rails fit together for sealing, tightened by knurled screw knobs.  The housing's internal glove allows easy access to camera controls.  If your setup is too buoyant underwater, the optional BF1 lead weight can be affixed to the bottom of the housing.

The U-AXP housing accommodates an autofocus SLR camera with a shoe-mounted flash, with the maximum dimensions for the whole kit being 7.5 x 10.75 x 6.6" with lens and a 72mm maximum lens filter thread. Adapters for 52, 55, 58, and 62mm filter threads are included.  Amongst others, this housing fits the Canon EOS-1 and EOS-3 and Nikon F4/F5 film cameras, and the Canon EOS 1D/1Ds/10D + BG-ED3, Fujifilm S2 Pro, Kodak DCS 14N, and Nikon D1h/D1x/D2h and D100 with MB-D100.

An Ideal Near-the-Surface Solution
The Ewa-Marine housing's perfect for use at or near the water's surface, such as in sailing or snorkeling, but it is also practical for protection from harsh weather conditions.
Bellowed to Work with Autofocus SLR Cameras
The ribbed, bellowed section of the housing allows some fore/aft movement of a lens during its focusing action.
Extra Height for Shoe-Mounted Flash
The U-AXP is taller than the standard U-A autofocus housing to allow the addition of a shoe-mounted flash.
Double-Laminated PVC Construction
Long-lasting housing solution that is easy to maintain and packs in a minimal space.
Noncorrosive Clamping Rails
The noncorrosive and seawater-resistant clamping rails are secured by knurled thumbscrews.
Battery Packs
The specially profiled foam padding can be removed from the housing to allow room for a battery pack.
Optional Lead Weight
Buoyancy can be changed adding the optional BF1 lead weight.
Economical
Priced significantly less than conventional housings.
