Q: 6. I would like to know if this lens will work for surf photography?

A: The Fantasea Line UWL-09F Underwater Wide-Angle Conversion Lens is designed to be used underwater. If you try to use it for surface shooting you will get too much distortion and the images will not be sharp. For surf surface images you need to use a mirrorless camera or DSLR with a wide lens and dome port on the housing. The following would work great for surface surf photos: Fantasea Line FA6500 Underwater Housing and Sony Alpha a6500 Camera Body Kit.

A: Yes, the DZOFilm VESPID 90mm macro T2.8 Lens (BH #DZ90VP) will fit into a slot in the DZOFilm 4-Lens Hard Case for VESPID Primes (BH #DZOCASEV4).

Q: 8. how soft is the foam?

A: The Meike Hard 6-Lens Case for T2.2 Cine Lenses (B&H# MEMKCINECASE) features cut-outs of stiff foam that are specifically designed to fit the 12, 16, 25, 35, and 50mm T2.2 cine lenses from Meike. While universal lens holder cases often feature softer foam to conform to the shapes of a variety of lenses, those with custom-cut foam (such as this one) are stiffer because they fit the lenses precisely and as such offer better protection. If you are intending to use this case for alternative lenses (i.e., not the aforementioned Meike cine ones) then you may want to use additional material to keep them from jiggling around such as neoprene sleeves or a wrap such as Ruggard 15 x 15" Padded Equipment Wrap (Black) (B&H# RUGW15B), but the choice of the right such additional sleeve or wrap will depend on the lens you're using and how closely it matches the cut-outs in the Meike case.

Q: 9. Eight of the ten lens slots are labelled for the lens that is supposed to fit in them. What are the other two slots intended for?

A: The extra slots can hold the new 21mm and the 40mm VESPID Primes.

Q: 10. Will this work with an Olympus PT-056 housing for a TG-4?

A: The Kraken Sports KRL-11 Standard Wide-Angle Lens 90 (M52 Thread) is not compatible with the Olympus PT-056 Underwater Housing for Tough TG-3 Digital Camera.
