General Description
Following on the big success of the Leo I, we have designed and produced a
much more evolved housing, under every aspect of the design, functionality &
versatility.
The underwater housing
Leo II is born to be used with all the reflex DSRLs on the
market; thanks to the revolutionary electronic FotoControl USB keypad (see
image 1) which allows to remotely control all the principal commands of the
digital reflex cameras, LEO II is the only universal housing actually in the market.
This way eliminates the necessity to manufacture personalized mechanic keypad
and control happens simply connecting the USB cable to the camera. This creates
the enormous advantage of acquiring a housing extremely versatile and utilising
even in case of purchasing, in time, a new camera.
The basic standard configuration
sees the LEO housing complete of
FotoControl USB keypad which
allows to manage the following
commands: shutter speed +/-,
ap/-, autofocus, autofocus
+ Shutter (pushing first autofocus
and then autofocus-shutter to
recompose the shot the focus
remain unchanged allowing this
practical operation), ISO +/-,
mode, exposure compensation
and other personalized functions depending on the camera own with an add-on
keypad (optional). Furthermore the standard configuration includes: a flash
connection Nikonos 5/6 pin depending on the camera type, the zoom command
to adjust the zoom lenses focus (not the lenses gear) and a double cast
aluminium handle with preset bayonet for attaching the flash arms (see imagine
2).
Advantages
:
The FotoControl USB keypad has, in brief, the following advantages:
1. With 1 single hole on the housing it is possible to control remotely from the
outside of the housing all the commands of the Digital SLRs cameras
2. In the event of
purchasing a new
camera, the housing
is re-usable
3. The problems with
mechanic leverage
shutters of the
traditional housings
do not exist as the
commands are
electronic wet
contacts and not
mechanic with
springs.
4. It is much simpler
to use the housing,
even wearing gloves
(i.e. to adjust shutter speed and aperture it is sufficient to press a single button
+ o –).
5. The more demanding people
could manage 2 Fotocontrol USB
keypads, having therefore the
possibility to implement the
commands depending on the
exigencies of the available
functions on the camera owned.
6. Maintenance is limited to the
very basic minimum.
Thanks to the modification of the
internal sledge, to the possibility
of quickly changing the front port
to allow to insert different types
of lenses, to the special tubes,
and finally thanks to its
maximum safety (double o-ring
in every possible water entry),
the Leo II is the most versatile
and trustworthy housing for SLR
cameras on the market (Image 3).
