Well, got my fish eye last week, and borrowed a compact dome port for my Sea and Sea NX-80.
1. Surprised that even though I used the compact port instead of the fish eye port, I could not see really any abberations in the picture. Sure, at 2.8 Aperture, there was some Vignetting, but that exists even with out the port ( when you take normal pics )
2. Can any one tell if they know of any problems using the compact for the fish eye ? I cant really see any big issues. Above A= 5.6 there is virtually no vignetting
3. Well, I recon I got Macro ( even with 2x teleconverter) under the knee, but this fish eye stuff is a different animal for sure. Some potential nice pics, but no keepers
a) My slave strobe did not fire ( need a double synch cord I recon )
b) the ground was blown out by the left strobe
c) The back scatter was horrendous. Point taken that viz was not so good ( maybe about 5 -10 meters an object was barely visable) but every pic had very very clear back scatter ( any tips ? )
4. Even though the lens has alot of barrel distortion, under water it is not that visable, and can be managed.
I guess there is alot of home work required.
It was fun though !
