Gates Deep Weapon Underwater housing for Red Dragon, Helium, Gemini & Monstro cameras for rental

Roger Munns Blog, Equipment

I now have a Gates Deep Weapon underwater housing available for rental.

The Gates Deep Weapon housing supports both DSMC1 and DSMC2 cameras. That includes the RED Weapon, RED Epic-W, RED Dragon, RED Epic, RED Scarlet-W, RED Gemini, Red Helium, RED Monstro, RED Raven and RED Scarlet cameras. Through the Gates system of ports, gears and extenders it can be configured to handle almost any lens, including Nikon, Canon and PL mount lenses.

The housing can be hired as a complete UHD (4K) setup together with my RED Epic-W Helium 8K S35 camera, Red DSMC2 Gemini 5K camera or it can be rented alone for use with a different camera.

The housing package includes a housing for the Red Ultrabrite 7″ Touch Monitor, the Gates Seal Check II system, Trim Weights, Gates Tripod, Carry Handle and Pelican Travel Case. Ports and extenders are available to accommodate most SLR or Cinema lenses.

The Gates Deep Weapon housing is located in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. It is available for hire in Malaysia and worldwide.

Deep Weapon is the fitting next step of Gates workhorse underwater digital cinema systems.
Deep Weapon is backward compatible with all DSMC cameras (Epic, Scarlet, Dragon) and the new DSMC² cameras (Raven, Scarlet-W and Weapon).  Continued support for a wide range of PL and DSLR glass, external monitor, adjustable grips at fingertip focus / iris / zoom controls, and adjustable buoyancy / trim are carried forward.  And most remarkably, Redmote communication enabled is provided standard with the Deep Weapon kit via a cabled interface.
