Imaging Systems / SeaLapse Photo

SeaLapse-Photo is an autonomous time-lapse still camera system. It consists of a SLR Digital camera and its time-lapse controller housed inside a subsea enclosure rated for 1,000m depth. The time-lapse device controls the shutter release of the camera, enabling to take pictures at pre-defined intervals.

SeaLapse-Photo is pre-programmed before each mission to run up to eight time-lapse photography sessions. Two powerful strobes complete the system allowing taking pictures in darkness conditions. The system is powered from a separate battery pod that connects to the main camera housing.

For ease of operation and to avoid opening the enclosures in between deployments, the system is powered up and down via a switch located on the endcap. Pictures can also be downloaded via an external USB connector.

Options include:

Flat or Hemispherical Viewport
Glass or Acrylic Viewport
6,000m depth rated titanium housing
