"I bought this primarily for shooting whitewater rafting inside the raft on hot days. So, my rig never really gets a chance to cool down on a long day of shooting. This case system performs great, with only a few minor hiccups, none of which were day-enders."
"I just started using the Outex 120mm dome paired with my nikor z14-30 fs, i’m still learning this new tool and am excited to incorporate it into my adventure photography business. In terms of construction, it provides a snug fit with the longer pro case i’m currently using on it, the quality of the glass is perfect!"
"No complaints, awesome tool for my first attempt at underwater photography."
"I’ve been dreaming about taking my camera underwater for ages, and I finally got my hands on this housing – and wow, it did not disappoint. From the moment I unboxed it, I could feel the quality. It was so easy to set up that I was ready to dive in within minutes. The 180 dome instantly stood out – crystal clear, beautifully built, and it makes every shot feel cinematic. Out in the water, it felt solid and reliable, giving me the confidence to just focus on capturing the moment. For the price, it honestly feels like a hidden gem, and I can’t help but tell everyone about it."
"The hardest part is stretching it enough over the sharp parts of the camera body, but once everything is in place, the photos are crisp and and controls easy to manipulate."
"I love this dome! Great piece to carry on my adventures, incredible glass quality. Really recommend"
"bit hart to excess alle the buttons"
"Perfect product, perfect service, perfect and fast delivery to Germany"
"This housing is awesome!!!!!!! First day out and I got a huge Honu (Hawaiian Sea Turtle) I'm so excited to take this to Italy next month and get some WOW shots! Thanks for an excellent product opening a whole new world of photography for me. I just started photography in March of this year."
"I have managed to go out a couple of times so far with my new camera housing that you have supplied me. I am very impressed with this product I use it to photograph Surfers."
The most complete Outex solution: patented waterproof housing + optical glass dome port, compatible with all DSLR, mirrorless, cinema, medium format, and film cameras. Waterproof to 10m/33ft.
This kit has three options. Here’s how to choose:

Note: Use the Comments field at checkout to specify your dome adaptor/clamp preference, lens details, or any questions.
Dome ports correct optical aberrations that occur when light travels between air and water — eliminating the distortion and discontinuity you see with flat ports in split-level and underwater shots. Outex domes are made of optical glass (not acrylic), and use adaptors or clamps to position the dome at the optically optimal point for your specific lens.
→ Full dome vs. flat port guide on our FAQ page.
Unlike most housings that use acrylic ports, Outex uses high-quality optical glass ports and domes — ensuring professional-grade image fidelity, edge-to-edge sharpness, and true color rendition. Full manual and electronic control of all camera and lens functions is maintained through the cover.

**120mm dome** — Compact, lighter, more portable. Great value for most underwater and split-level work.
**180mm dome** — Larger dome = better optical correction, especially for wide-angle lenses and split-level photography. Recommended for professional and demanding use. Heavier and bulkier than the 120mm.
