Device was placed 180 metres ( 590ft ) below the surface in 1970 by Professor Roy Mackal .

It is likely one of the earliest attempts to capture the Loch Ness Monster on film.

Remarkable that the housing has kept the camera dry for the past 55 years .

It was unearthed during trials of a submersible vessel commonly known as Boaty McBoatface .

Some believe Nessie is a long-necked plesiosaur - like an elasmosaur - that survived somehow when all the other dinosaurs were wiped out.

Others say the sightings are down to Scottish pines dying and flopping into the loch before quickly becoming water-logged and sinking.
