Although there is a hydrophone on most of the underwater housings supplied by Budget Video Rentals, actually getting useful audio in the water is a substantial challenge. If you have ever tried to communicate in a swimming pool, for instance, yelling as loud as you can into the water (while exhaling) will be barely heard by another in the water, and it will be the same for the HYDROPHONE on the camera...

nanoFlash for Gates EX1 housing |
Convergent Design's nanoFlash is the World's Smallest High Quality HD/SD-SDI / HDMI Recorder/Player. It is also the most versatile Recorder/Player in the world in terms of bit-rates, recording options and formats. By adding the nanoFlash, one can meet the 50 Mbps acquisition requirements, for many networks.
Includes special mounting hardware from Gates for use with the EX1 underater housing
"The Sony EX1/EX1R cameras with a Gates housing, SWP44C port and nanoFlash recorder meet the BBC HD requirements for full HD level acquisition.
No other housing manufacturer can claim such a prestigious position for broadcast quality video form the EX1/EX1R (or EX3) cameras. The need for a Gates housing and SWP44C port are key in meeting the BBC requirements.
History suggests the BBC acceptance of a full HD level system means others will follow for their Gold Standard HD acquisition: National Geographic, Discovery, PBS, Animal Planet, etc."

Water Wizard Underwater Housing |
Synchronize your lighting above, on, and under the water by encasing your Pocket Wizard Plus III Radio Transceiver in the Water Wizard from Aquatica's Technical Lighting Control series. This waterproof housing protects your transceiver from harsh elements, allowing you to safely link and trigger multiple underwater strobes and top-side studio flashes. The Water Wizard features an Ikelite bulkhead connector, which interfaces with your camera housing or lighting units via user-supplied, commercially available sync and extension cords. This setup is compatible with any DSLR housing equipped with Nikonos or Ikelite-type strobe connectors.
This housing has a depth rating of more than 150', but since radio wave signals transmit poorly underwater, the Water Wizard is designed for surface use. When secured in the housing and floating on the surface, the transceiver can transmit or receive signals underwater from connected camera housings or lights over the distance of a 15' sync cord or above water up to 325' within a clear line of sight.
In shallow water, the device can be attached to a tripod or other support using 1/4"-20 threaded mounting holes located at the sides and bottom of the unit. In deeper water, winglet extensions on each side can accommodate Aquatica's optional buoyancy floats to keep the housing vertical on the water's surface, thus improving transmission.
Additionally, the Water Wizard can function as a remote camera trigger. To do this, you'll need Aquatica's optional remote control bulkhead (# 18738) and an internal remote cord compatible with your camera (# 19310 for a Nikon 10-pin remote socket, # 19311 for a Canon 3-pin remote socket), which connects to your camera's remote control terminal. Once this is set up, you'll be able to trigger the camera from a remote location.
Built for durability with stainless steel and PVC plastic parts, the Water Wizard is suitable for use in sports and activities such as outdoor photography, underwater adventure, extreme boating, surf photography, as well as research and industrial applications involving adverse weather or conditions that require lighting to be operated in the field without risk to equipment.
Features:
- For Pocket Wizard Plus III Transceiver
- Waterproof Remote Triggering System
- Protect Transceiver from Harsh Elements
- Ikelite Bulkhead Connector Interface
- Surface Use / Waterproof to 150'
- Radio Waves Trigger UW / Top-Side Lights
- Range: 15' UW / 325' Unobstructed Above
- 3 x Tripod Holes
- Optional Buoyancy Floats for Deep Water
