Underwater Camera Dome Sapphire

Bought this for my underwater camera gear and it is terrific. Holds, housing, dome port, 2 strobes, camera, 3 lenses, arms and diffusers without problem, AND it's flight legal. Excellent quality as well. Great purchase for underwater photographers.

I set up an Ikelite housing, compact dome port, strobe and two arms over an EOS R6 Mark II and RF 14-35 this morning. Then I slipped this 11 pound rig into the Travel Duffel 35L with room to spare. After the rig is pressure-checked overnight, we'll take it to the dive shop for its first underwater tests. The bag is perfect for that. Or for taking a set up underwater rig from the hotel to the shuttle. It's the perfect tool for the job.

Add this fisheye to a 10cm dome port and that's it! The image quality is amazing and you don't get that tunnel vision effect you have when using SLRs with fish eyes and minidome ports due do the image distortion associated with the dome. Whith this lens and the 10cm dome you get one of the best superwide-angle you can dream of for underwater photography. The minimum focus distance is about 0cm from the dome, so you can get as close as you can. The only draw back is that it won't be so easy to take over-under shots with small-moderate sized waves, as it would be with a 20cm dome, you will have to be more patient. On the oher hand you gain reach and manouverability in tight places. If I would use it only for dry photography, I'd test the fisheye manual lenses from kenko/samyang/bower, and, if the IQ matched I'd get one of these instead. My final word is, this lens coupled with a 10cm (4,33 inches) is one of the cheapest and best sets for underwater wide-angle photography in the market.

I utilize this lens in an underwater housing behind a 230mm dome port for fantastic fisheye images of reefs, big animals and above/below water.

The underwater housing dome port has a focal length of 12 inches, whereas the canon lens is 14 inches. I use the product to allow the camera to focus on the dome virtual image providing much crisper images.

I took shots at dark. The camera saw what I could not. It is going to be quite useful in my underwater adventures.

I need this product in my sealife underwater camera

keeps the dreaded underwater camera fog at bay.

Dome strap!

I highly recommend this if you have an underwater camera and want to make sure you don't lose it.
