Nikon’s D300s is the new flagship in the company’s DX-format range. It inherits the 12.3 effective megapixel CMOS sensor; Rapid 7 fps continuous shooting; and a large, bright 100% frame coverage viewfinder. It also boasts a great new feature - the 720P HD movie mode after that of the existing D90 and D5000.
Nauticam NA-D300s housing for the D300s is slightly bigger than the first NA-D90 model. The housing is also machined from robust aluminum alloy with a hard anodized surface treatment. The thickness of the coating allows the housing to go through the toughest shooting conditions.
The ergonomic design of Nauticam housings has been well recognized from the first model. And the NA-D300s improves on an already successful design. Through sets of well designed gear systems, all the most used functions on the NA-D300s housing can be easily accessed without moving hands from the grips. The video function can be easily triggered through the side lever on the rear case of the housing.
The unique easy locking port release system has been the most talked about feature ever since the launch of the first housing. It will undoubtly again be a very popular feature on the NA-D300s housing. And there are sets of extension rings with locks to go with different option of dome ports.
Divers could choose to use a lighting system with either 5-pin bulkhead or Nauticam high quality optical fibers. There are two types of connectors for Nauticam optical fibers to use with Inon S-TTL strobes and Sea & Sea DS-TTL strobes.
