A friend's wife’s practically unused set up who isn’t diving any more for sale.

Canon G9X II camera and Fantasea housing for sale. Sports a great 1” sensor and 28-84mm range lens.

For Wide Angle add an Air Lens or Glass WA lens to the 67mm threads.

A couple pics I shot using this combination are below.

$400.00 for Canon G9X II camera AND housing plus shipping.

Share with any dive buddies!

Hi, obviously this was sold some time ago, but do you remember if the g9x fantasea housing is physically much big than the olympus tg5/6 housing? Thanks
 
Almost the same size as G9X I and II housing has a smaller front port than the rectangular "snoot" on their Fantasea FG7X II / III housings.

I saw your post on Waterpixels.net too.

The Olympus TG6 /7 are great macro cameras. But as you mentioned the Canon G9X I / II model's 1" sensor has some advantage for overall general shooting.

One other thing I've mentioned previously is all Fantasea housings have DUAL o-rings.

A BLACK silicone one you lube on the back, and a flat WHITE "gasket" you never remove or lube. The WHITE one seals against the flat front door like a GoPro housing.

The AOI Olympus PT housings only have one rear RED silicone o-ring.

I've always thought the AOI made Fantasea housings DUAL o-ring housings plus Canon G7X II / III and Sony RX100 V / VA / VII / VII housings that can come with a vacuum system made them a bit more reliable.

Just some insights!
