Camera Configuration

The housing can be configured with either a ‘Compact’ (no monitor) or with a back to suit the Portkeys BM5IV monitor.
The Compact Back allows for a 40mm shorter housing, ideal for compact remote rigged scenarios, or for use with an external monitor.
Note, the monitor is not included with the monitor back.

The housing has full physical control of the camera, including but not limited to:
- ON/OFF Switch
- 2x M16 bulkhead threads
The BM5 monitor back also features controls for:
- ON/OFF Switch
Construction
CNC machined from a single piece of billet aluminium then anodised and painted.
All buttons and hardware are 316 stainless steel, providing superior corrosion resistance.
Grips
The housing comes standard with two side handles included.
Paint
Our housings are anodised for corrosion resistance, however you also have the option of adding a highly durable two-pack paint finish.
The paint not only provides additional corrosion protection to your housing, but also provides an opportunity to customise the look of your housing.
You get to choose your colour(s)! And the options are almost endless.
You can choose a color from here, or from our Instagram page (@saltysurfhousings)

Ports
Salty’s SIREN models offer a stackable bayonet port system for seamless and flexible lens changes.
The Pyxis Housing utilises the SIREN XL Bayonet Port System as standard, and can also be configured with a custom Titanium Nikonos Port Front.
BASE price does NOT include a mandatory port option. You cannot use the housing without at least one port.
The front element in our ports is replaceable in less than 30 seconds by simply unscrewing the locking ring and dropping in a replacement acrylic screen we offer for purchase. So no more spending hours buffing scratched ports!
