COMPLETE UNDERWATER PANASONIC CAMERA SYSTEM
COMPLETE UNDERWATER CAMERA SYSTEM Complete system comprising a Panasonic Lumix TZ-10 high-end compact digital camera sporting 12.1mp, 12x Optical Zoom with a 3.0 inch LCD which comes complete with THREE genuine Panasonic batteries and TWO chargers, a dedicated Panasonic 40mt rated housing, and auto flash unit. THE CAMERA: The TZ-10 is silver has a host of features and has GPS built-in. It can also capture x720p HD video, which can be saved as either a Motion JPEG file or in the more advanced AVCHD Lite format. Whichever way you view this offer, it’s an impressive set of kit. 3 batteries means one can get in a full day’s underwater photography in when away from a power source for recharging. Additionally, the 2 chargers mean that 2 sets of batteries can be charged up simultaneously. Included with the TZ-10: 8GB SDHC memory card. Three genuine Panasonic batteries. (these normally retail at £40+ each) Two chargers & mains cables. Stiff leather case which fits the camera snuggly (not shown in photos) THE HOUSING: The Panasonic housing is dedicated to the TZ-10 and is safe to 40+metres and, like the camera, is in excellent condition. It has never flooded even on a dive to 55 metres there was not a hint of leakage. This depends solely on keeping the gasket seal perfectly and utterly clean and lightly greased. Even the tiniest grain or speck will cause a leak and it’s because I have been meticulous each time the housing is opened and resealed that no leakage has ever occurred. There are a couple of vague scratches on the BACK of the unit which are invisible underwater and, in any case, do not interfere with image taking in any way. ALL camera functions are available via the system of buttons on the back panel of the housing. Included: Spare gasket/sealing ring. Silicone grease. Silica-gel pouches. Spare clip-on flash diffuser (for use when external flash not used) Fibre-optic coiled-coil flash sync cord. Heavy-duty coiled-coil clip-on safety lanyard. THE FLASH UNIT: Again in full working order. The flash unit triggers automatically by picking up and transmitting the flash from the camera’s internal flash via a fibre-optic link cable (included). The end of the fibre-optic cable is attached onto the outside of the housing which means the housing is not penetrated in any way. As with the camera-housing, the unit has never flooded. The battery compartment is the only watertight ‘openable’ compartment so that the flash circuitry is full waterproof. Uses 2No. AA batteries, but please note batteries are NOT INCLUDED. This is truly a superb basic underwater camera system It has produced some superb still pictures and some excellent video footage which has been incorporated into a full-length movies of some of the dive expeditions it’s been taken on. That may sound as though it’s had a lot of use, but not really as the usage has only been on once-a-year foreign trips in tropical waters over 3 or 4 years, so the whole system is in very good condition.
