    Canon A620 Ikelite Housing Wide Angle Lense Help?

    Ok.....

    Im a newbie....I admit it...that being said

    I dont have enough knowledge about getting a wide angle lense for my Ikelite housing # 6140.62 ....

    I see some from Inon..Epoque..Sea and Sea....

    I just want one....just dont know what specs to consider....

    I mean...I look...see some lenses...and dont see if it will fit my housing or not....I just dont want to order a lense and it not fit properly....

    According to the Ikelite website...it will allow the UWL-100 lense....but Epoque and Sea and sea have some lenses that are cheaper but dont know if it will fit mine or not...

    any one have any suggestions as to what should consider getting??

    The ikelite housing will take any 67mm threaded lenses. So long as the epoque/sea & sea lense are 67mm, they should fit.

    Inon makes lense adapters for most Canon housings but not all of them... Ikelite has 67mm to fit mostly Inon 67mm lenses.
    Huh...Huhh... Beavis is bleeding...

    You have two choices. Ikelite makes adapters for the Inon AD mount, and a 67mm thread. The AD mount is a bayonet, which is easier to use underwater. My advice is to buy the Ikelite AD mount and the Inon UWL 105AD.

    Won't work. I also wanted the AD mount as it's sooooo much easier to put on/take off. Unfortunately, I e-mailed ikelite and their response was that they had no plans to make an ad mount adapter.
