Professional underwater filmmaking with a full frame mirrorless camera can mean more than just a good camera body and lens. The 200DL housing series now supports the attachment of third-party external monitors via HDMI 2.0 through a dedicated large bore M24 accessory port. The port is conveniently located on the left side of the housing just behind the handles to keep the large diameter cords out of the way of your hands and face while shooting. |

Due to the size and weight of external monitor housings, is not recommended to mount a monitor directly to the housing using the central top mount. A reticulating ball arm system is the best way to mount an external monitor. This allows the monitor housing to be moved in all directions - up, down, left, right, and rotationally - quickly and easily. The ball clamps can be loosened slightly underwater to allow one-handed repositioning of the monitor when changing shooting positions or to provide access to the rear housing controls. For example, the monitor can sit above the housing when shooting a subject below you or directly behind the housing when framing macro. This avoids the awkwardness of re-learning how to aim your lens because your image is no longer in line with it. This requires the Ball Arm for HDMI Monitors # 4080.12. The Ball Arm is mounted to the housing using:
* Housings below serial # 73600 require Trigger Extension # 4077.93.
A 3-point ball arm is the most ergonomic and versatile way to mount an HDMI monitor to your housing. The ball clamps can be loosened slightly underwater to allow one-handed repositioning of the whole monitor set-up when changing shooting positions or to provide uninhibited access to the rear housing controls. A top Cable Grip # 4080.09 is essential for carrying any system around on the surface in-between dives. |
