Nauticam NA-X2DII Underwater Housing for the Hasselblad X2D II 100C
Shooting 100-megapixel medium format beneath the surface was once the domain of custom rigs and compromise. The Nauticam NA-X2DII changes that, bringing the extraordinary image quality of the Hasselblad X2D II 100C — a 100MP CMOS sensor, considerably larger than full-frame, with genuine 16-bit color and around 15 stops of dynamic range — into a purpose-built underwater housing. Machined from a solid block of seawater-resistant aluminum and rated to a depth of 100m, the NA-X2DII surrounds the camera in a rugged, precision-fitted shell, placing every essential control at your fingertips. The result is a system that lets you capture the sweeping dynamic range of a sunlit reef or the fine detail of a macro subject with true medium-format fidelity.
Key Features of the Nauticam NA-X2DII
- Ergonomic control layout: Integrated handles with stabilizing brackets and thoughtfully placed controls: zoom/focus knob, control ring dial, front and rear scroll wheels, a front custom button, and an AF-ON pad positioned for natural thumb operation, keep you shooting rather than fumbling for settings.
- N120 Auto Lock Port System II: Ports mount with a simple push onto the housing, no twisting or threading, and lock securely in place, keeping ports from rotating even with extended focus and zoom rings attached. The patented bayonet mount makes changing ports and lenses quick and easy.
- Vacuum System: Paired with an accessory vacuum valve, the built-in electronic monitoring system gives you a constant, color-coded LED read-out of the housing’s watertight status along with peace of mind during your dive.
- Dual fiber-optic bulkheads: Two built-in fiber-optic connections make strobe triggering clean and reliable, taking full advantage of the camera’s leaf-shutter design and high flash-sync speeds, up to 1/4000s with compatible strobes.
Lens & Port Compatibility
The NA-X2DII is built around the N120 Auto Lock Port System II, giving access to Nauticam’s extensive N120 port lineup. It supports popular Hasselblad XCD lenses including the 35–100mm zoom, the 20–35mm ultra-wide zoom, and the 120mm macro.
Premium Water-Contact Optics
The entire point of shooting a medium format camera is to achieve the ultimate in image quality. With that in mind, pairing Hasselblad’s vaunted XCD lenses with Nauticam’s water-contact optics is the best way to take advantage of that potential underwater. For wide-angle lovers, both the WACP-1B and WACP-2 are compatible with the XCD system, delivering incredible edge-to-edge sharpness, expansive fields of view, and the highest level of resolution available in a consumer underwater system. These optics allow the exceptional resolving power of the XCD lenses to shine while providing outstanding image quality across the entire frame.
On the macro end, wet lenses such as the MFO-1 and SMC-3 take Hasselblad’s dedicated macro lenses to the next level, both optically and in terms of magnification. The MFO-1 adds versatility while helping maintain excellent sharpness and autofocus performance, while the SMC-3 opens the door to extreme magnification for photographers looking to capture the smallest subjects in extraordinary detail. Together, these water-contact optics make it possible to get the most from the Hasselblad medium format platform underwater, without compromising the image quality that makes the system so compelling in the first place.
Build Your System — Recommended Accessories
A housing is the heart of an underwater imaging system, but strobes or video lights, arms and clamps, the right port or dome, focus and zoom gears, and a vacuum valve turn it into a complete rig.
