Forget the editing, please show us a clip !!!

LOL... will this do for now???

here are a few screen captures from the video, no editing at all, just resized:

heading down

vis was clear, only 4 other divers when we got there at 8am

looking up from my safety stop

just a little sample of what I got. I am thrilled with the WA lens underwater! I was afraid it would be a dark lens, but it is not at all. All the video looks crisp and clear.
I will get something editing in the next couple of days to post.

NICE !!!

The viz is fantastic. Glad to hear the lens/port is working well. Look forward to seeing your video.

Curious, are you using the 37mm to 37mm extension on the Raynox ?

topside I used the extension ring, otherwise the camcorder lens cover wouldn't open all the way. Underwater, inside the housing, I had to take the extension off as it wouldn't fit. Once again the camcorder lens cover wouldn't open so I unscrewed the lens slightly and it worked fine. A bit of a hassle, but I am happy with the results.

I'll have to try mine without the extension ring. Maybe it will help cut down the vignette I get.

Sorry to bring up an older thread. Does the housing have to be sent back to Ikelite to install the dome or flat port? Or is that something I can install myself? Would it be removeable so I could do a macro specific dive without the dome port?

Thanks,
Dan

You can change the ports yourself. No need to send it to Ikelite.
