Canon 5D / Ikelite Housing / 8 Inch Optical Dome For Sale

Filed under: For Sale on 11/21/2008

SOLD.

Here are some photos of the rig. Note that the fisheye lens on the camera is shown for illustration purposes only, it is not included.

Hi Everyone, here is your next wide angle rig:

THIS INCLUDES A CANON 5D Body in excellent condition.

  • Ikelite 5D Housing with handles. The housing has that Ikelite electonics in it to support some sort of Ikelite dial-compensation for your flash, but I’ve never used it and don’t know how to describe it.
  • Ikelite 8″ Dome Port (the big one, the best optical dome of the Ikelite line). I shoot a 24mm 2.8 prime through this dome port and it is pretty darn sharp.
  • Canon 5D Body SN #1020702392. I had Canon Irvine clean the mirror, viewfinder box and sensor just this week. Included are the warranty cards, box, charger and all that stuff that comes with it when it is purchased new.

I am the second owner. The original owner used it as a macro rig, and as a back up to his primary wide-angle rig. This housing has had little use since I purchased it about a year ago. I’ve used it on two trips where the deepest it went was about 10′, and in the pool a few times. Here are a few shots I’ve taken with it:

If you like those, buy this housing and you can go get your own! I’m listing this in several places and want to sell it now, no fooling around.

$2100 takes the entire rig including the camera body. Shipping in the United States only, by UPS. (The camera alone is worth about $1000 to $1200 according to Ebay.)

Cash is king, if you want to meet in person. Next best is Paypal. Cashier’s check is next best, followed by a personal check. Buyer pays shipping, I will send it UPS ground insured or faster if you wish.
