![]() ![]() Sony DSC-F717 ... Digital Still Camera Housing ( camera NOT included ) |
![]() This housing is very similar to our housing for the DSC-F707 Sony camera, but the cameras are different enough to require separate housings. This housing is surprisingly small and has controls for most camera functions. The complete system with camera weighs just over 7 pounds. Removable external UR-Pro filter is included. Push buttons control the zoom, AE lock, meter button, and white balance on side of lens. Push buttons on back provide the info button, menu, and five position menu pad. Exposure compensation button, mode dial, and the tricky jog dial are on top of the housing. Shutter release and on/off controls are on the side. The camera flash is blocked by the housing. A special Slave Sensor is included and installed inside the housing, wired to a bulkhead for attaching our new digital strobes with a sync cord. The strobes can be operated as fully automatic or manual. The base provides a stable platform when housing is not used, but removes instantly to provide a lower profile and allow camera removal. The housing is molded of corrosion free clear polycarbonate and operates safely to 200 feet. The Release Handle system allows easy attachment and removal of SubStrobe mounting arms at the touch of a button. Housing measures 7" wide including knobs; 12" wide with the removable handle bar attached; 8" high including the removable base; and 8.5" deep including knobs and port with glass lens. Optional add-on lenses can not be utilized because of the very large diameter of the Sony lens. |
