The FD-80 housing system lets photographers capture the widest variety of superior underwater images and provides the opportunity to use the exact lenses for the best circumstances, including a choice of macro, wide angle, fisheye, and zoom lenses. The FD-80 is easy and instinctive to use and handle.

The Fantasea FD-80 is more than just an underwater camera housing since it provides protection for the D-80 against damage from rain, snow, dust, sand and dirt. It is a valuable tool for many commercial, industrial, and medical applications, because it is resistant to most liquids and sprays.

The FD-80 housing is rated to a depth of 200 feet (60m). The main seal between front and back halves is a radial o-ring. The lens port attaches with a double o-ring seal for double protection. The camera �slides� into the FD-80 housing on a specially designed tray. Once inside the housing the stainless steel latching buckles on the back door are snapped shut, sealing the system with a sound watertight seal. The housing controls are made from stainless steel shafts and springs and are sealed by double O-rings as is the housing port. The control knobs and buttons are made of sturdy molded polycarbonate. The FD-80 flash sync port is a five-pin Nikonos type system which allows for full TTL coverage especially when using the Fantasea FSB800 Flash housing for the Nikon SB 800 Flash.
