Outex is helping transform underwater photography by empowering content creators expand their capabilities, unleash their creativity, and grow their business.
For elite photographers who push the boundaries of creativity, capturing stunning images in unpredictable environments is a challenge—but also an opportunity. High-end photographers using advanced systems, from DSLRs to mirrorless setups, demand absolute perfection in image quality, even when working underwater or in harsh conditions. Outex—the world’s best waterproof and outdoor housing system—is helping leading photographers achieve exactly that.
Because of Outex's universal compatibility, professional performance, and affordable pricing, it is empowering hundreds of photographers and cinematographers expand their capabilities to include outdoor and underwater imaging as well. Much more powerful than an action-cam or point-and-shoot camera, Outex allows content creators to unleash their creativity in any environmental condition with the camera gear they know and love.
Shining Example
Professional photographer Ric Lewis has been building a name for himself in the portrait space for years, first as Capture Wonder Photography, then with Ric Lewis Photography, along with long time model, artist, and partner Kayla Douglas. Ric and Kayla are frequent speakers at professional events, and host workshops and teaching sessions all over the country.
Waterproof Magazine Feature
As an electrical engineer, Ric has plenty of imaging experience both inside and outside camera gear and the use of light to create amazing images. He's an ambassador for a number of imaging brands such as Stella Pro Lights, Spider Camera Holsters, Cheetah Stand, Aftershoot, etc. So it was no surprise Ric chose Outex as his go to underwater camera housing system. "I was referred to Outex by Light And Motion, makers of Stella Pro Lights." Ric says. "The Outex waterproof camera housing system makes perfect sense in today's professional environment for a number of reasons, including its optical qualities, compatibility, modularity, travel friendliness, and affordability."
Outex: The New Gold Standard in Camera Protection
Outex is more than just an underwater housing; it’s an innovative, optically superior system that protects professional cameras from water, dirt, and extreme weather without compromising image quality. Unlike bulky, heavy, expensive hard-shell housings that still use plastic/acrylic ports, Outex’s patented flexible design maintains complete control over camera functions while preserving crystal-clear optics through its optical glass ports, including domes.
Why Outex is the Choice of Top Professionals:
-
Optical Excellence: Outex’s optically pure domes and ports ensure zero loss of sharpness, color fidelity, or autofocus accuracy. Hard cases costing a lot more still use plastic/acrylic ports and domes, which are optically inferior.
-
Universal Compatibility: Designed to fit a wide range of professional cameras and lenses, including high-end setups used by commercial, fashion, and fine art photographers. This way artists can utilize film, DSLR, mirrorless, medium format, and some cinema cameras with one Outex system that maintains workflow and settings consistency, and unleashes creative freedom.
-
Modular Upgradability: Like all cameras, Outex is a system of inter-operable parts that work together, and users can add support for tripod mounts, lights, triggers, tethering, remote control, etc, as their needs warrant.
- Lightweight & Compact: Perfect for travel, impromptu opportunities, and offering protection without the bulk. You don't need a case for your case, and can have it available when you need it.
-
Reliable in Any Environment: Outex protects against water, mud, sand, and dust, empowering photographers to push boundaries with confidence.
