Outex is Compatible with all Cameras and Lenses Outex waterproof camera housing system is compatible with virtually all mirrorless, DSRL, and even most film and medium format cameras and lenses. It's a one-size-fits most system, and we offers variants of cover sizes and glass to accommodate ALL.   The covers come in SMALL, REGULAR, and LARGE.   The front Ggass supports all standard filter thread sizes in the market. The rear glass options can be used for all cameras.

Outex underwater housing glass dome ports work modularly with the rest of the Outex waterproof systems - both Entry or Pro Kit covers.  The domes optimize photo and cinematography results underwater, and especially split-level videos or stills.

Outex's Most Travel-Friendly Professional Underwater Housing System Available Outex adds virtually no weight or bulk to your camera gear, making it the most travel friendly professional housing system in the market.  It fits in the bag or case you already own, and makes it a no-brainer to have with you all the time just in case you need it.

Desiccant (silica gel) packs can be used for moisture absorption.  They are useful for wicking moisture away from the air/environment they are in, and can be used inside the Outex waterproof housings to reduce the amount of air moisture inside the housing.  That in turn helps reduce fogging.  Fogging is often the result of the heated moisture in the case's air, and often cause by the camera gear.

Outex underwater products are built to last.  When properly maintained all of our components can last as long as your camera equipment. There's a dedicated Maintenance entry on this topic, but in summary: Rinse the Outex parts with mild soap and water after use to rinse and clean. Use a toothbrush to remove detritus from the threads or openings the human hand may not reach. Pad components dry with a towel or cloth and let them dry before reassembling parts back together. Avoid storing it wet or assembled. Store in a dry, cool place, just as you would your camera gear. Refrain from compressing the cover too tightly when stored, to avoid creating fold-marks. Protect the cover when installed on a camera by using our carrying case during transport, even inside a backpack, to avoid hitting other hard objects.
