For sale is a brand new Hugyfot housing for the Canon 5d Mk iii, plus the FLP/K-6.606 Acrylic Flat Port. This system has only been taken out of the box so that I could photograph it. I won it, but I don't shoot with a Canon and am unable to use it. The system comes with the full warranty. Retail price for the housing is $3450USD, and the port is $240, for a total of $3690. I am selling both for $2900 (plus PayPal fees if you choose to use PayPal). Buyer pays shipping. This item will be shipped from the U.S. I understand that international shipping fees are expensive, so if you live outside the U.S. and are interested in purchasing the system, please let me know. I may be able to help with shipping costs.
This is a great chance for someone to have a brand new housing and port at a substantially discounted price! Included is the HugyCheck system which utilizes a vacuum pump to insure that the housing is properly sealed before you ever get in the water.
Here some information about the system from the manufacturer:

Hugyfot developed a pre-dive vacuum check system called 'HugyCheck' which enables the photographer to perform a vacuum test prior to entering the water. This test will indicate whether the housing has been closed properly, and whether the housings' O-rings are in good condition.
The HugyCheck system consists of:
- electrical vacuum pump
- one way valve (on one of the bulkheads*)
- LED pressure indicator (on the camera hotshoe)
- leakage alarm
