spare gear for 16-35mm lens

Canon BG-E4 pistol grip in ‘A’ condition (with original box)**not for use in housing**
2x Canon batteries (hold charge well) in ‘A’ condition
Canon fisheye EF lens 15mm f:2.8 in ‘A+’ condition
Orange waterproof travel case (23.5” x 18.5” x 12”)
This sale is for the kit listed above, it does not include the 580ex flash or 16-35mm lens.

This kit is in excellent condition, has been very well looked after, and has never had leaked!
The fisheye port is immaculate; the 16-35mm port has minor scratches but is not a problem for image quality. I removed the eyepiece (which I still have) as I was mainly shooting underwater and found it easier when wearing a mask.

The housing is constructed of ultra light weight aluminum. Sheared, formed on a sheet metal press brake then welded solid by a certified welder. All aluminum is hard anodized to protect against salt water corrosion. The housing is then painted with industrial powder coat paint.
The custom made 50ft sync cable makes this camera perfect for shooting underwater in swimming pools or tanks, and lets you use additional flash lighting outside the water without the worry of being connected directly.Just add a flash wizard or any other remote sync to trigger the flash.

Depth Rating 15-20ft
Weight 2.75 lbs with fisheye port and pistol grip.

I'd be interested, but you haven't listed where you are selling it.
Because you are talking pounds weight I'm assuming USA , but who knows.
Then again I could ask through PM but, I'm semi brain dead from traveling, so ????

Hi Jaffa,
Yes, you're deduction is correct, it's in USA, and as it's in the pelican style case it's good to ship anywhere. heres the listing on ebay, which should calculate the shipping cost: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Custom-made-SPL ... CA:US:1123
cheers,
