Brand New (never taken underwater) housing (17423) purchased before the pandemic, but cancelled all my dive trips since then, hence never taken underwater. (Fortunate to acquire a Sony-A1 recently, hence upgrading). Receipt from Optical Ocean Sales dated 12/2019. With all original boxes / carry...

Thanks for the reply! I have the Panasonic GX7 mirrorless. I always shoot Manual -- manual mode , manual flash, and manual mode on the strobe. With the YS-D2J, the "Green" manual mode without pre-flash... Similar settings work reasonably fine for my YS-D1...

I have a couple of YS-D1s that has served me quite well for 100+ dives; prepping for an upcoming trip (Solomon Islands) I found one of my YS-D1 wasn't firing all the time. Thought it's prime time to "upgrade" my strobes. Got a couple of YS-D2J from B&H; one of them is dead on arrival. Got it...

Hey all - I just bought the Nauticam GX7 housing and like it generally (haven't taken it underwater yet). One thing i dislike, however, is the mode dial coupling with rubber. I had to push down pretty hard to reliably turn the mode dial, and as such it's hard to go several modes in one pass...

Thanks all! Yes i am glad to hear that the macro can work behind the 4" port (either Nauticam or Zen). I know it's not perfect for the macro, but maybe it's worth starting with that setup. By the way, I am very new to this lens/port relationship. The Olympus 60mm macro has a minimum focusing...

Hi all, I'm ready to graduate from my S95 setup (2 Inon D2000s, UWL-H100 and UCL-165) and thinking of getting the GX7 with the nauticam housing. Now comes the (probably often asked) question of lens and port selection. I suppose ideally I get what lens i need and then get a port for each of...

Thanks Interceptor121! Will PM you.

Thanks Asha. You mean the UFL-165AD ? There are a few reasons i haven't considered it - 1. it's supposedly designed for 35mm wide compacts, which means it would vignette at 28mm. not a huge deal i guess given how wide it is. 2. for the above reason i am planning to get the LD mount, which...

Hello all, I have been shooting with S95 + Canon housing + ULCS tray and arm (5") + single Inon D2000 for some time, and I'm heading to Komodo next month. To prepare for the trip i am planning to get a few additions to my rig: 1. Sola 1200P as focus/video light (with flexarm) 2. Wide-angle...

Thanks. Now i am more tempted to go the LD mount route with the inon mountbase. If i have the mount base on top of the tray, would it make the camera / tray coupling less sturdy? Now the housing have a couple "feet" that touches the back of the tray making it impossible to rotate. In this...

Thanks for the info! I am planning to add the Dyron 67mm adapter, and use 67mm lenses like the Epoque, or the H100 28M67 and/or the UCL165 M67. I've been shooting without lens attachment for ~70 dives, and it's true that i don't zoom usually, unless i am shooting skittish animals like blennies...

Hello all, I use the canon housing for the S95 and I'm considering to add wide angle (either WA-110, or Inon UWL-H100 28M67) and macro lens (UCL165) to the setup. (I have the ULCS arm and tray, an Inon D2000 and a sola focus light) Two newbie questions: 1. When i have the wide angle lens on...

I am planning to buy the S90, DC35 canon casing, and the inon s2000 with optical cable attached to the DC35 case. One question, how is the optical cable attached to the case? Is it removable and re-attachable? I am a pretty new diver and would like the option of not taking the strobe with me...
