Ack! Off to Fiji in a few hours and I added new eqpt.
Yesterday I was in Monterey, so I stopped at Backscatter and bought a pair of Inon AD lenses (165 UCL & 105UWL) to go with the AD adapter I bought a long time ago and never installed until late last night when I discovered the machinework required to do it without the Inon tray set-up for the strobes.
I won't be able to download my pics and check them closely in Fiji, and I've got a couple of questions on using these lenses.
For the close-up lens, should I be in Macro and zoom it or super macro with no zoom? Will it allow macro to focus closer in? If I use manual focus, how will it affect my focus distance shown in inches on screen?
For the Wide angle lens, which focuses down to 8", should I keep the camera in macro and expect the lens to take care of infinity or should I be in normal focus mode and let the lens take care of the closer focus distance than the camera would normally do? Hope somebody is up and reading on a holiday morning. I'd be diving if we weren't flying out at 3:30.
I know, when you add new eqpt. always allow practice time, but I'm an idiot and the wife was there and feeling generous after spending $300 to fix her "brand new" $400 e-bay dry suit.
