FS: Del Mar surf housing (for HV20/30/40) + Century WA lens

[brandonmphoto]

I really need to unload this housing since I no longer own an HV. This was only used a handful of times since I had the boys at Del Mar make it for me in the spring. Fits any HV camera (correct me if I'm wrong, but they are all the same body). So...HV20, HV30, HV40. Comes w/ front wide port, extra port bolts, o-ring lube, moisture-muncher packets, leash, port cleaning solutions.

I'll throw in a Century Optics 0HD-05WA-43 .5x wide angle lens for no additional charge ($160 value!!!). The lens is in mint condition, comes w/ front cap. This lens fits perfectly in the port on the housing.


Price is $1050 shipped/pp'd in CONUS.

Hey,

I've just started to get really keen to get into the water and film my mates with my HV40.
I've searched around a bit for housings suitable for the HV40 and it seems like SPL and Del Mar come highly regarded.
There's not much info around though and just wondering if you could answer a couple of questions?

1. What controls can you use? Start/stop, zoom etc?
2. How did you find the tiny screen from the viewfinder? Is it enough to be able to see what you have in the frame?
3. Can you fit a bigger battery or lens in there?
4. Do you have any vids online from using it in the surf?

I'm pretty interested in this if i can get the money together,

Thanks for you help,
Tom
