    S1 Filter?

    I just got my new s-1 and wp-dc20 housing and i am like a giddy little school girl. Where might i get filters for it. Or can I even use filters with it. What should I use?

    The S1 requires the use of a lens adapter to be screwed onto the front for filters. However, the camera with the adapter on doesn't fit into the housing.

    So... the short answer is that you can't. The only way I can think of at this stage (and here is where someone else may help) is to buy an Inon M67 Mount Base and add filters and lenses on with that.

    AFAIK, filter use in UW photography is pretty much restricted to the use of red filters.
