Hi there at Ikelite,
I have decided to go UW from cropped to FF sensor, hence I recently bought a EOS5D Ikelite housing, which is going to replace my only 4 months old 400D Ike housing. I also need a longer macro lens like a 100m USM and need to find a replacement for the 10-17 Tokina WA.
Now I have Ikelite port questions for you :
- I own a 17-40L lens which I might intend to use UW. Ike provides two dome solutions either the 6" or the 8" dome : is there any significant image quality difference between the 2 for the specific 17-40 lens?
- I read that that the 6" dome cannot accept diopters with the 17-40 on a full frame camera.. is a diopter necessary for the 17-40?
- I could also buy a sigma 15 FE lens, do you have any 6" dome solution for it with the 5D -I must say I am a bit reluctant with the 8" because I travel quite a lot, hence the 6" is more convenient in that regard.
- I would like to use a canon 500D diopter with the 100mm Macro USM. does it fit in the port or do I have to switch to something else?
Thanks in advance for your answers
Cheers

(hoping you will have good news for the DS125 I have just sent to repair... )
