Re: Video Housings

I think the challenge you are going to face is the fact that your vidcam is a consumer one and the housing manufacturers don't see it as one to invest in producing an external monitor that, say, sit's on top of the housing.

About the only way you will be able to have thi soption is to look at companies like Light & Motion and see if one of their housings will fit your camera and then add on the external back plate LCD monitor.

Ikelite does make a housing for your vidcam and seems to have a kludged way of seeing your external monitor via some type of mirror, but I'm not a fan of plex housings. Equinox offers it's ProPak housing with a rear external monitor as well.

HTH,
