Ultra compact, lightweight body
The Seatool SR1/UX1 underwater housing for the Sony HDV Handycam HDR-SR1/UX1 is machined from pure, solid blocks of
aluminum and polycarbonate. The end result of this meticulous attention to detail is one of the smallest, lightest
underwater video housings every produced.
This housing features rugged aluminum construction yet only weighs less than 2kg. Small and light enough
to hand carry on aircraft, it's the perfect tool for the travelling diver faced with increasingly strict airline
weight restrictions.
Because the housing body conforms so closely to the camera, the housing attains nearly neutral buoyancy
(slightly negative) for effortless underwaterhandling handling.
