  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

The easiest and quickest way to get underwater Red footage, the SPL water housings are light as a feather and as strong as a safe. The Red Epic Dragon is in used but good condition with 775 hours, still lots of life in it, cheapest way to get into the Red ecosystem on their nicest sensor (personal opinion, but it's amazing).
SPL housing has some wear and tear but still water tight, scratch on the inside of the rear perspex viewing screen, pressure dent on the rear control (looks bad but works fine), but the ports are scratch free. Have been using it for a surf foiling documentary, recently been in some hairy ocean conditions and no issues at all.

Shipping at cost to buyer, contact for quote or questions - mark@marktipple.com

Functions are : Power on - off / rec start - stop (body button) rec start/stop handle button, aperture, thumb handle select wheel, right arrow, handle enter button, customisable rear button (I mapped to magnification). Functions are limited but more than what I used in the water, generally set within a few stops of exposure then swim out until the RedMag media runs out.
Canon 24-70 mki auto focus doesn't work, no auto focus control on DSMC1 anyway so was never a problem. I used a range of lenses in the 100mm and 85mm flat ports, Sigma Art Primes - 24 & 50, Canon 100mm f2, Helios 58, whatever fits and focus / zoom rings can be reached can be used.
Canon 10-22's range is great for surf, generally shooting at f5.6 + for surf so the slowness didn't matter. 
Price includes eBay seller fees and Australia wide postage.
