Description: AQUATICA AGH5 HOUSING for PANASONIC GH5/GH5S/GH5 III purchased this made-in-Canada Aquatica housing brand new, right before my wife became pregnant with our first child. I took it into the water to check the buoyancy, but I never had the opportunity to use it because our spawn have left me high and dry. Since then I've gone on one dive trip (sans camera) and I don't expect to have time for more diving and photo/video editing in the near future, so I'm passing on my gear to someone who can use it. The housing comes with the original box and paperwork, including the blank warranty registration card.I purchased this housing to step up from a GoPro setup after hitting the ceiling on the GoPro's performance in terms of image quality, color rendition, and low-light performance. My analysis suggested the AGH5 was the best value upgrade because the intermediate options between the GoPro and GH5/GH5S/GH5 II (i.e. compact camera housings) were still costly but didn't afford the same flexibility in terms of lens options and image quality.The AGH5 is currently going for $2,800 from Backscatter or BlueWater Photo. I'm asking $1,800 for the same housing in practically new condition. Housing, paperwork and accessories as pictured with possibility of superficial handling marks. Please ask questions and/or request more photos as necessary. VACUUM SYSTEM INCLUDEDThe Aquatica AGH5 housing comes with the Surveyor moisture and vacuum monitoring sensor circuit installed at the factory. A visual and audio signal will alert you should any of the o-rings become damaged or affected by sand, hair, or any foreign objects that would compromise the sealing integrity of the housing seal. The system provides peace of mind that your equipment is protected against leaks.IMPROVED CONTROLSAnother great improvement over previous Aquatica housings is new self-aligning controls. With the AGH5 housing you do not need to align the controls on your camera before closing it. The On-Off and the Focus mode levers are spring loaded and designed to ''find their own way'' once the housing is closed.EXCELLENT ERGONOMICSThe Aquatica AGH5 housing has a new Shutter lever design, this gives a much easier access to the front dial control knob. As the ISO and WB on the camera are key controls for video shooting, two levers were positioned right under your thumb for quick access to these important camera functions.The AF/AE Lock lever and the shutter lever were brought even closer together on the AGH5, this allows simultaneous operation even for people with smaller hands. To also benefit from the great button customization on the GH5 camera, the programmable Fn2 and Fn5 were designed with large buttons and are positioned right at your finger tips.FEATURESExceptionally good and ergonomic control placementLow-profile housingInnovative self-position finding lever controls.Well established and proven system of portsAquatica Vacuum System IncludedThree accessory bulkheadsEight threaded holeDepth rating options of 90mRECOMMENDED LENSES:Olympus 8mm F1.8 Fisheye Pro for stunning ultra wide-angle shots;Panasonic 7-14mm F4 lens for wide-angle video, or shark photos; this is also a great topside landscape lens; For a high-end option, get the Olympus 7-14mm F2.8 pro lensPanasonic 12-35mm F2.8 lens for a great mid-range lens for underwater videoPanasonic 14-42mm as a good mid-range lensOlympus 12-50mm lens for good mid-range photos and good macroOlympus 60mm macro lens for great macro & supermacro
