Philippines is open at last! Since the "Grand Opening" on Feb 15 it has been a pain to enter Ph. Now I understand they have eased requirements for US travelers. Thx goodness! I recently visited BADLADZ Resort in Puerto Galera. PG has great diving and the resort is lovely, on Small Tabinay...

Chris... Camera loaded in Air Conditioned room for 1st dive with fresh dessicant pack. Dry air inside, no chance of droplets. Light too close to lens port, port fogs. Don't overanalyze, keeping the light away from port solves problem. Using TCON moves the focal range away from the lens to where...

Note; also noticing the latch on the Olympus housing seems to be coming slightly away. After 2yrs it still latches & if I clean the o-ring, groove & lube each dive it has been reliable. TG5 camera has survived housing flood as deep as 143ft without issue. Also noting TG6 has difficulty...

Peterak... My apologies not responding sooner (I didn't get notice of response posts). Please note I specified the FantaSea UCL-O9F supermacro lens. This is a 67mm wet lens that attaches to the case. The lens is about 2" long. In macro mode the TG can focus as close as 1/2" from lens. Thus the...

I have used my TG-5 WITH PT-058 housing for 1.5 yrs, now also have TG-6 with SeaFrogs TG housing. Fogging happens when shooting supermacro 1cm from the housing BECAUSE my Sola 1200 light heated the outside of the lens port. Keep light off between shots (also conserves light battery) and move...

Hi Stuartv, thx for your compliment. Scubaboard malfunctioned on 1st upload, reported this thread unsuccessful. I guess maybe tge title got messed up during the upload malfunction. The correct thread (and title) are here: SeaFrogs TG Housing vs Olympus PT-058

My SeaFrogs housing has been ok except for 1 issue, the zoom lever return spring broke early into using it. Still trying to get the issue resolved. No response from SeaFrogs factory. I wish the flash port worked like it does on the Olympus housing. SF is a bit bulkier for sure.

Olympus Workspace is a free download if you bought one of their cameras. You will need to enter the serial number from your camera. Then you can edit .orf files

I have both Oly 058 and SeaFrogs TG5 housings using TG5 & TG6 cameras. My post here; SeaFrogs TG Housing vs Olympus PT-058

You can refresh desiccant packs in a microwave or let them sit out in AC to dry out. Been using mine over 1 year. Fogging the Oly PT-058 happened when my 1200 lumen video light was too close to lens port, heat difference caused it. Turn off light between shots or move light away. Be careful of...

Had same problem. In Settings found default MF Assist is set to MAGNIFY ON. Turn it off. The Auto Focus has difficulty if fully zoomed. Zoom out, focus, zoom in.

O.I. Share is great to transfer JPG images to your phone, not RAW. Hints; Turn off Bluetooth. Transfer limited number of photos, 20-40 max suggested, in groups. Then move them from Olympus folder to folder titled for that dive. Transfer videos separate from photos. Long video files may need...

Using TG-5, I use a FantaSea UCL-09F supermacro 12x and worked with another diver using a similar 15x lens. You must adjust the focal point away from the camera the distance of the lens. Do this easily in ACC settings, set to TCON for Telephoto. That will give you the advantage of your add-on...

The SeaFrogs housing for Olympus TG5 also works for TG6. The only significant difference I observe between the Olympus PT-058/9 is the clear back is now translucent. However after using both Olympus PT-058 and SeaFrogs TG there are some differences I'd like to point out that are not in the...
