HISTORY: 

Underwater Housing
This camera housing was introduced in 1955 to accommodate the H-16 for underwater filming. The unit was watertight down to depths of 330 ft. [1] Three controls were located on the outside for the operation of the lens diaphragm, motor winding and camera release. The device was equipped with a parallax corrected viewfinder and originally supplied with two diaphragm collars: one for a Switar 10mm f/1.6 and the other for either Switar 16mm f/1.8 or Yvar f/2.8 lenses. [2]Later versions were available with diaphram collars to support H-8 and RX lenses. Weight, out of water and without camera was 22lbs; 4 1/2 lbs while submerged. It sold for $430.00 US in a 1958 retail price list.

Lenses are all available from Old School Camera's Rental Department. Please inquire for purchasing and availability.
