Abstract: A modular, submersible video viewing system. The system includes a viewing monitor, camera and interconnecting multi-conductor cable that store at a portable housing and deploy for underwater viewing. Webs at the camera housing interconnect to cable clips, bottom support plates, a swivel coupler or steering guide and/or pole to control camera orientation when towed or during stationary or pole directed viewing. Alternative rudders and/or hydrodynamic ballast weights (with or without a keel) mount to the webs to control camera tracking. A multi-aperture reflection suppressor and etched lens mount to the camera and cooperate with a series of LED's to direct light relative to the viewing field of the camera lens. Various sunshields, lights and/or lenses and filters are optionally mountable to the monitor housing or camera. Alternative monitor housings are disclosed that contain the viewing monitor, battery and attendant control circuitry and camera.
