Australian inventor and filmmaker, Pawel Achtel, has introduced the "3Deep" underwater rig -- the first to resolve full 5K 3D images underwater. 3Deep circumvents the need for dome or flat faced viewing windows, instead using Nikonos lenses designed specifically for underwater use. This methodology eliminates much of the distortion, chromatic aberration, and lost resolution that is common with underwater rigs.
This 3Deep side-by-side rig has a depth rating of 60m (unlimited with pressure compensation) and is comprised almost exclusively of lightweight titanium material. Its modular design, alongside its ability to cover the newly released 6K RED DRAGON sensor, makes this product invaluable for those looking for high-resolution underwater capture. Pawel himself has provided 5K sample footage from the 3Deep rig.
