Waterproof mechanism with O-rings and clasp provides 40m water resistance
O-ring has the advantage of being easy to remove for maintenance. Applying the supplied grease to the O-ring makes it more supple allowing it to hold a better seal when the clasp is closed. Although the structure of a typical case leaves the possibility of water intrusion if it is deformed, the TW-2 has been designed with a waterproof structure that allows you to enjoy underwater diving safely.
Acrylic resin lens and metal tripod screw holes for improved durability
The lens is made of acrylic resin with high hardness to improve the durability of the lens. In addition, the use of a metal tripod screw mount improves the strength and durability of the thread as well as the reliability of operation when diving equipment or gloves are worn.
Dedicated lens protection cover included
The lens is protected by a special lens cover that wraps around the entire lens to reduce abrasion and scratches on the lens.
Shape, lens coating, anti-reflective sheet for high image quality
The shape of the case is designed to minimize reflections of the camera. An AR coating is also applied to the lens surface to minimize reflections, and two types of sheets are included in the package that can be attached to prevent THETA X itself causing reflections on the case. These details have been carefully designed to ensure that beautiful 360° images can be captured even underwater.
Housing design for easy operation underwater
The case allows power on/off, switching between still/video shooting modes, and operating the shutter button without removing the camera from the case even underwater. The case also offers expandability that allows various camera accessories to be attached by utilizing the tripod screw mount. THETA X’s screen still allows users to check settings and images even underwater. However, the screen is not touch-sensitive when inside the housing.
