Article Summary:

The Aquatica AT2i housing for the Canon T2i/550 has undergone its complete field testing cycle and has now started shipping. Among modifications made from the pre-production prototype are a new retractable focus/zoom gear rack/lens release lever and the control layout has been ergonomically positioned with vital functions (for both still and video) all now being more accessible. The housing has a knob that allows the built in flash of the camera to be lowered for doing ambient light images and a push button to raise it when the user wishes to return to strobe illumination via fiber optic TTL.

Also recently introduced by Aquatica are two new ports, the 4” mini dome 100 and a low profile macro port designed for the Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro lens.
