the rank of our already wide selection of housings,

rating that set us apart from our competitors.
This Aquatica Digital Pro
housing incorporates the same mounting bayonet
as all our current housings, meaning that it will
accept our existing ports and extensions, including
our tack sharp Megadome. As expected, our line
of standard accessories such as the Aqua View finder,
remote control cord, and TLC line of strobe arms
are also fully compatible with it, this integration
into the industry’s most complete underwater
photography system puts the D700 housing in a position
to face every aspect of this ever so demanding
field of activity and reward its user with the
best result that technology can offer.

also available. And the Aquatica bayonet features one
of the largest standard port opening, insuring compatibility
with today’s generation of large diameter lenses

MAINTENANCE
The recommended
servicing procedures of the products are outlined in
the manuals supplied with the product. The outside
of the housings and the accessories should be rinsed
in fresh water after every dive. The handles should
be removed after use otherwise if they remain attached
to the housing for any length of time they may bind
to the housing and be extremely difficult to remove.
We suggest that the main O rings be lubricated regularly
and all of the O rings be checked annually.
