Deciding on the best Underwater Camera or Video Camera housing to Hire
When looking at which underwater camera housing is best for you research will show you that there are two main options hard cases like the Ikelite underwater housings we hire and the ewa-marine soft housings whilst the ewe marine housings are very cost effective especially when you hire them they can be a little tricky to access all the functions on your camera, camcorder or video camera so if your after a simple shot then sure these will do the job for you but if you will be pulling focus or ned to access the functions on your camera then check out the Ikelite housings as these have the main controls built in to the housing so you can be sure of proper control during your underwater filming or photography project
Ewe marine Underwater Housing Hire
The ewa-marine underwater housing is a flexible see-through housing and upon first inspection you find yourself thinking that this can’t possibly protect my camera! But it does! The ewa-marine underwater camera housing can go down to depths of 150 feet however don’t panic, it doesn’t start to let water into the underwater housing if you go any further however as the pressure increases with your depth the underwater housing will be pushed close to the camera which can press the buttons and alter your settings. There is a different model of the underwater housing for each camera so make sure you hire or rent the correct underwater housing as the flexible housing material may rip if not big enough to house your camera exposing your camera to the water. In the ewa-marine housing there are 2 blocks of foam provided to allow easy positioning of your camera and to adjust the height to ensure the lens fits correctly into the lens port. Sealing up the underwater camera housing is simple – you stick the screws in through the sealing bar and turn the thumbscrews. It’s best to test the bag without a camera in it first to make sure there are no holes and it is watertight. Condensation is very common in these housings however ewa-marine includes a few packets of the Silica gel with a space inside the case for you to pop one in to counter any condensation. Overall for a low budget this is a very good underwater camera housing to hire

It’s very simple to insert the camera into the case; you simply slide the camera onto a tripod shoe while sliding it into the housing and then secure the ends.
