Aquatica 20093-KM-VC Overview

Use your Sony a7S III mirrorless digital camera to capture brilliant photos and UHD 4K video of the undersea world with the Aquatica Underwater Housing. It features a depth rating of 295', which can be upgraded to 426' for free upon request, and it is equipped with a Surveyor moisture alarm and pressure sensor.
