Tilt, pivot and swivel for the perfect, comfortable viewing position.
Ask any seasoned professional "What makes underwater imaging easy and painless?" The list is short: reliability, perfect balance / trim, simple user-friendly controls, and a bright underwater monitor rich with focus / exposure tools. That's the Gates family of Underwater Monitors.
High resolution displays, access to focus and exposure tools, shades and shade extensions, and of course a low profile tilt / swivel base mount for perfect viewing position. Reliability is inherent: Seal Check fittings are standard to verify integrity *before* entering the water. And nearly all cables are custom made to Gates specifications with a tough outer jacket and internal water-block material. Should the cable accidentally be cut, water is restricted from travel to your LCD or precious camera.
Reaching the far corners of the world, Gates housings are tasked with the most demanding projects extending from marine research and military to television and cinema productions. Experts know that failure is not an option, so they never take a chance…. they take a Gates!
