Nauticam NA-645DF Underwater Housing

Nauticam Underwater Housing for Phase One and Mamiya Cameras

Nauticam USA has collaborated with Phase One to raise the standard in underwater imagery. The NA-645DF has been specifically designed to enclose a Phase One or Mamiya DF body with a Phase One P+ or IQ series digital back. When used with the IQ180 this allows an unprecedented 80mp capture underwater. Paired with the 28mm, 80mm and 120mm Macro lenses, the underwater package can deliver all of the advantages of medium format photography, up to a depth of 70 meters.

Housing Features

The NA-645DF is build from aircraft-grade aluminum and hard anodized after machining to make it extremely resistant to salt water erosion. Thanks to the triple locking latches and audible and visual leak alarm, the camera system is reliably protected from the elements. The housing is available in both single- and double-grip configurations, and the sophisticated overmold process ensures a comfortable ergonomic grip, an appreciated feature on long dives.

The optional accessory viewfinder provides an edge-to-edge, magnified view for checking fine focus and corner composition. The lens ports are manufactured from scratch-resistant, optically coated glass, providing superior image quality when paired with the compatible Phase One lenses. Flat optical grade acrylic ports are also available.
