Gates HC7 and FX7/V1 Housings
Gates has posted the new housings for the Sony HC7 and FX7/V1 housings on their website. A new feature for the HC7 when compared to the HC3 housing is an optional White Balance Control, and the new FX7/V1 housing are smaller and lighter than the housings for the FX1/Z1 cameras, taking advantage of the new models smaller size and weight. And just as great for the HC3 owners, the WB control can be retrofitted on the HC3 housing.
