Watershot Announces The Watershot 450D Housing For The Canon EOS 450D/XSi

By Matt J. Weiss, February 6, 2009 @ 02:00 AM (EST)

Overview
Watershot announces the release of the WDS-450D Housing (supporting the Canon 450D/XSi Rebel/Kiss X2).  This housing features the precision build quality of brands costing twice as much.  This machined aluminum housing is compact, light-weight, durable and ergonomically designed allowing all functions easily accessible for all users.

 
The standard WDS-450D Kit features a Standard Flat Port, 18-55mm zoom gear, 2x optical ports for external strobe connectivity (optional electrical sync port coming soon), Watershot bayonet port system for easy port removal/replacement, hand strap, removable camera tray, leak sensor, and full access of controls.
 
Watershot has developed a unique zoom/focus gear system that utilizes a flash shroud.  This shroud prevents the possibility of ghosting by blocking light from the camera’s internal flash.
 
The WDS-450D Kit is the perfect housing system for the novice photographer upgrading to a DSLR housing system and the experienced photographer who desires an affordable, state-of-the-art aluminum housing.  The kit com
es with everything you need to get started as well as easy to follow instructions.
 
Strobe compatibility
The WDS-450D is compatible with any strobe that can be optically slaved via a fiber optic cable.  The WDS-450D is compatible with Sea & Sea’s DS-TTL on the YS-110a strobe and INON’s S-TTL on the Z-240, D-2000, and S-2000 strobes.

Wathershot’s electrical sync port option (coming soon) will allow electrical strobe connectivity to a variety of strobes on the market.
