    HELP..Why do you need housing if p/s is waterproof to 33?

    I have a 1030sw that I used without a housing for over a year. I've taken a few pictures while snorkeling with the manometer reading 28-29 feet. Never had a problem with it. In fact, the first time I used it underwater was in a pool, where I video'd myself front flipping into the pool...

    60mm AF-D Nauticam port

    Ah. Would the 60 AF-D work in the 105 port? (I bought the af-d but i just think the dedicated ports look awesomer). I guess if nothing else, compact and 50 will fit both 60af-d and 105 correct?

    60mm AF-D Nauticam port

    Thanks jack. You're referring to the N60G correct? When the AF-D is focused in, the front extends correct? Still plenty of room? Also, would you even need the focus gear if all you do is auto?

    PP-E04/50mm/14-42

    Thanks for the answers phil. Was just trying to be as economical as possible. I don't actually have any dslr system yet, just trying to answer all my questions about them so I can buy confidently. If I buy the olympus system, my plan is 50mm and inon port up front. 9-18 and dome a little...

    PP-E04/50mm/14-42

    Thanks, but my question is whether the 50mm and 14-42 will work in the pp-e04. I've done a search and it looks like the 14-42 will work. I'm interested in having a fast prime in the dome for fish photagraphy, hence the 50mm.

    PP-E04/50mm/14-42

    Do the 14-42 and the 50mm work in the Dome port? It doesn't say so on the spec sheet, but has anyone tried? Just curious... especially about the 14-42.

    new micro 4/3 camera and goes underwater

    For the m9-18, it telescopes out to be used as shown here Exclusive look at Olympus Micro Four Thirds 9-18mm super wide zoom lens (Four Thirds User) Does that mean it will have a problem working in a dome port? Or is it just "collapsible" during storage and the fully extended position is...

    new micro 4/3 camera and goes underwater

    Would the m43 9-18mm be as nice as the regular 9-18 if there was a dome to put it in? (assuming a 3rd party makes housing & dome port) On the fotopus site, theres a lot of corner softness with the 9-18mm in the flat port of the oly housing.

    new micro 4/3 camera and goes underwater

    After seeing the videos by jun shimizu, I NEED this camera. For any of the pro's out there, could we really speculate that a 3rd party WA port would be manufactured or more likely their own housing + ports?

    Fisheye FIX for the S90

    Ahh I see now. Hey nemrod, how come you always take your DIY/assembly pictures without macro turned on? Always so out of focus, or maybe you just take pictures as fast as you swim.

    Fisheye FIX for the S90

    So wait, nemrod, You have the FIX90 housing, and the 10bar 67mm to AD adapter? That's all? Or do you have to buy a $200 adapter and the 10bar one?

    Issues with Fantasea Bigeye Lens for G10

    Hehe. I like how the past two pages have been talking all about possible moisture, humidity, fogging, lens problems etc. and just like you stated, the response completely ignored those issues. Sorry, I don't own a G10 or 11 or 9 or 7 or 23.2, but I can understand your frustration and...

    1030sw with strobe

    Actually I just reviewed some pictures that I took last week while free diving and on P mode the whole time, I got 1/400+ at around f/4.1 - 4.5 iso 80. These results were about 20-25 feet of water shooting the top of reef upwards, no flash. Supermacro at that depth was around 1/60 - 1/100...

    1030sw with strobe

    Which "mode" were you in? Being in the "handshake" mode in macro will net a fast shutter speed and F5.0. With flash on "fill-in" iso goes to 250. Would this be a useable setup? I own a 1030sw with housing and im fooling around with all the different auto setups to see if I can produce...

    Olympus 1030sw white balance question/software tweaking

    Does the S2000 still have this feature? I know you like to promote the s2000 as an ideal P&S strobe. I'm just wondering because I have bought an underwater housing for my 1030sw and here I am a week later bidding on a used a570. I was also thinking of going with opticalocean's S-tray with...

    Olympus 1030sw white balance question/software tweaking

    Nemrod, Since our cameras cannot fire a flash in super-macro mode, what do we do for extreme closeups with a strobe? Are we relegated to using regular macro or stacked len's?

    So, I think I took Nemrod's advice ... but still more questions

    Ressurecting this thread, I've been reading around and I really like the info you have to share Nemrod. May I ask (anyone out there) what options do 1030sw users have with super macro and no flash available? What steps or techniques are used in this particular case? For simplicity sake...
