Hi,
I'm considering getting an Ikelite UW set up for my Nikon D90, but I get confused by all the Ikelite ports and domes...
I intend to do have to main lenses for UW;
Tokina 10-17mm AT-X 107 AF DX (Fish Eye)
Tamron 90mm Macro 1:2.8 (Macro) or Nikon 60mm Macro f/2.8G ED AF-S (Macro)
I'd like to start out with just the one Strobe/flash.
Given the above, would this be a good set up (prices from Adorama)?
UW Housing : Ikelite Underwater Camera Housing for Nikon D-90 Digital Cameras : 1 330 USD
Strobe/Flash plus arms : Ikelite Substrobe DS-51 / Sync Cord / Ball Socket Arm Package for Ikelite Housings : 570 USD
Fish Eye Dome: Ikelite SLR Dome Port for lenses less than 3" (7.6cm) (IK5503) : 190 USD
Macro: Tamron : Ikelite SLR Flat Port f/ 5.1-6.1" Lens (IK550558) : 140 USD
Or
Nikon : Ikelite SLR Flat Port for 3.1-4.1" Lenses (IK550421) : 140 USD
Grand total: 2 230 USD (Yikes!)
Questions;
1) Have I missed anything vital?
2) I guess I should get the +2 dipoter that Ikelite recommends for the Fish Eye?
3) For the Fish Eye, is it worth to get the 8" Dome instead of the 3"? ("Ikelite Dome Assembly for very wide lenses..." : 380 USD)
If so, does this just replace the 3" or do I need something more to attach the 8" to the UW housing?
Regards,
Erik
