Isotta is now shipping its housing for the Canon EOS R5 Mark II. The second-generation pro-level full-frame mirrorless camera features a new back-illuminated, stacked 45-megapixel sensor with much faster readout speeds, allowing the camera to shoot full-resolution RAW images (with AF) at 30fps using its electronic shutter with less rolling shutter than before. The R5II is now also able to record 8K/60p RAW video internally.
Isotta’s housing for the R5 Mark II offers a similarly comprehensive set of features to its predecessor housing from three years ago. You get the same anodized aluminum construction, integrated adjustable handles, one-handed open/close, and double O-ring seals on buttons and removable parts. There are two zoom knobs (for RF lenses and for EF lenses), a large-bore M24 port supporting HDMI 2.0 output to a recorder/monitor like the Atomos Ninja V+ and two M16 ports, plus two fiber-optic ports. If you prefer electrical triggering, it’s also possible to order the housing with Nikonos N5 or S6 bulkheads. Note that the manual trigger is an optional extra.
The housing is available for pre-order from retailers such as Backscatter at an MSRP of at $4,050. However, with Isotta’s Black Friday discount, you can pre-order now and save $600!
