THE “HD WAVE”

Aquatica Digital has been providing for both the recreational and professional diver high quality underwater photographic systems for over 25 years.  Given their tremendous expertise in designing & manufacturing underwater photographic equipment, they are proud to introduce the new “HD WAVE”, their first High Definition Video Housing for the NEW Sony HDR-XR500V/520V HD camcorders.
