When filiming underwater, the challenge is to ensure the protection of the camera against water seepage and Autovimation has responded to the challenge by re-designing their Nautilus underwater enclosure by providing two water-tight seals rather than the previous one.

By double-sealing every critical component like enclosure lids, front window or cable gland means even if one seal fails, the camera is still reliably protected for up to 10 hours and at 10 metres depth.

Originally developed for under-water TV productions, the redesigned enclosure's conduit system protects the critical cable entry point from leaks by shielding the cables completely from the water. This way standard cables can be used. The cable exit on the other side of the tube is also sealed water tight in order to prevent any water entry from this point, double O-ring seals ensuring absolute water-tightness. The protective metal hose with a PVC coating and suitable cable glands ensures that the cable and cable exits are safely sealed against the incursion of chlorinated or sea water.

Easy to assemble
The protective unit has been designed for non-technical staff in swimming pool or TV-production environments to assemble without tools and without special training.
