Isotta Canon EOS R5 Mark II Underwater Housing

The Ferrari of the Sea

Isotta Housings ship WITHOUT Manual Flash Triggers, Flash Bulkheads, T-Socket & Ball Mounts for the Housing Arms to attach Strobes, Video Lights etc

"My initial thoughts after having a chance to handle the housing myself is that Isotta is well made and ergonomic. The back door is easy to open and close, port lock system is very reliable, the controls are easy to access, the housings themselves are light weight and compact design. All ports include caps and the dome ports include neoprene port covers. Isotta offers housings for a wide range camera models and I think this brand will be a great addition to our product line."

-Tommy Stylski, Bluewater Photo Staff

The staff at Bluewater just can't get enough of Isotta's anodized aluminum underwater housings. Holding the Isotta Canon EOS R5 Mark II housing is like driving an intricate yet elegant luxury vehicle - complete with the opulent red finish. This housing is crafted from a light-weight anodized aluminum designed for the precise innerworkings of the EOS R5 Mark II. You won't find a housing on the market with a tighter fit to the camera.

Ergonomic Button & Lever Placement

The location of the function buttons and control levers have been well planned and everything is readily available at your fingertips, which makes operation of the camera smooth and straight-forward.

The Canon EOS R5 Mark II Mirrorless Camera

While the Canon EOS R5 Mark II builds upon the impressive foundation of its predecessor, the original EOS R5, it introduces a host of significant improvements and enhancements. One of the most notable advancements is its impressive 45-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor. This high-resolution sensor delivers breathtaking detail and clarity, making it the perfect choice for capturing stunning landscapes, captivating portraits, and intricate product shots. The sensor's advanced design also ensures exceptional low-light performance, allowing you to capture stunning images even in challenging lighting conditions.

Additionally, the EOS R5 Mark II features a more advanced autofocus system, with improved subject tracking and eye detection capabilities. This ensures that your subjects remain in sharp focus, even in the most dynamic and challenging shooting scenarios. The camera's continuous shooting speed has also been improved, now reaching up to 20 frames per second in silent mode, making it an exceptional choice for capturing fast-paced action. The camera's eye detection autofocus is another game-changer, allowing you to effortlessly maintain focus on your subject's eyes, even when they're partially obscured or moving rapidly.

Anonther one of the most notable advancements is the camera's enhanced video capabilities, with the ability to record 8K video at up to 30 frames per second, a significant step up from the 8K at 25 fps offered by the EOS R5. But the EOS R5 Mark II's video capabilities don't stop at 8K; the camera also offers exceptional 4K video recording options, including 4K at 120 frames per second for smooth slow-motion footage.

Another key upgrade is the EOS R5 Mark II's improved thermal management system. This feature addresses one of the main concerns raised about the original EOS R5, which was prone to overheating during extended video recording sessions. The Mark II model incorporates enhanced cooling mechanisms, allowing you to record for longer periods without interruption, a crucial advantage for professional videographers and filmmakers.
