Underwater housing for Canon EOS 7D

November 20, 2009 @ 1:38 am

I don’t really intend to take my Canon EOS 7D into the water anytime soon, but for some reason, I’m a bit fascinated by underwater camera housings (or is it houses?). The very fact that I can take my camera into some place that’s totally not meant for a camera to be just makes me wish I had an underwater case to house my Canon 7D in.

Well, Ikelite sells an impressive looking underwater housing for the Canon EOS 7D for about $1500. I’m still not going to buy it, but it sure is the most complete underwater housing I’ve seen for the Canon 7D yet. It has controls for just about every part of the camera (except the multi-directional button on the back) and allows one to bring the Canon 7D up to 60m down into the water to either take still photos or video of whatever’s down there.

This is seriously one of the most fantastic videos I’ve ever seen. It’s purpose is to illustrate the instability of the American housing market. Every successive house that is built folds into itself and sprouts the growth of a new one, only to repeat the process again.

The video was directed by the geniuses over at Beeple. Thanks Matthew!
