Hybrid Vacuum Leak Sensor

INON’s unique Vacuum Leak Sensor is equipped as standard feature to check proper sealing of housing by vacuum sensor monitoring negative air pressure inside of the housing and combined leak detector warns you accidental flooding underwater by LED blinks and beeps. The pressure sensor is controlled by specific program offering different sensitivity between vacuum check stage and during diving (PAT. P).
 
When monitoring sealing of closed housing, the pressure sensor is set in ultrasensitive mode to detect even faint air leakage within amazingly short period (0.5 to 5 minutes). During diving, the pressure sensor automatically set to low sensitivity mode to provide proper monitoring without malfunctioning likely happened when pressure changes by varied ambient temperature.
 
Breakthrough flawless system to check housing leakage in 5 minutes.

X-2 GX9 VC

Compact Body Size W168 x H116 x D80mm/W6.6 x 4.6 x 3.1 inch

The INON X-2 for GX9 VC is designed compact as well not to sacrifice compact body size of camera itself. Despite of compact body, the housing offers same level of reliable waterproof property and durability as same as proven X-2 housing series.
 
The newly designed lock levers assure easy and faultless opening/closure of the housing without increasing body size.
 
Installing a camera is easily and securely led by proven 3-dimension guiding system originally developed for the legend X-1 housing where all you need is just putting camera inside of the housing without any optional adapter on the camera. Also shallow front body helps to hand on a camera during installation/removal of the camera without feeling stress.

Intuitive Control Layout

The Panasonic LUMIX GX-9 has independent dials to control aperture, shutter speed, exposure compensation values instantly. The X-2 for GX9 VC is designed to have those dials as well and precisely locate those dials so that all dials are accessible and easily controlled as like controlling the camera on land with holding the housing.
 
Together with large yet light touch shutter lever, these controls comfortably support necessary operation underwater.
 

Easily access to all controls

Leak Detector with Red LED and Beep

As standard feature, a leak detector is equipped with the housing to alert accidental flooding. The leak detector warns you accidental flooding with red LED on the right bottom corner of the rear body with beeps.
Optional vacuum leak detector will be available to check if the housing has been closed properly to keep waterproof property.
