Hi everyone,
I'm upgrading my camera system for a dive trip this month and was hoping you could help me with some queries on equipment compatibility before I place an order.
Any help on these queries from anyone with first hand experience would be much appreciated
Many thanks

I'm upgrading my camera system for a dive trip this month and was hoping you could help me with some queries on equipment compatibility before I place an order.
- Does anyone know from experience the compatibility between the UWL-400F/Backscatter M52 wide angle wet lens and the Ikelite LX10 housing (which as I understand has a slightly different 67mm thread that requires a particular base ring on the larger AOI/Fantasea UWL-09).
- If so, is it only the 52-67mm step ring that is required and what is the required zoom in to eliminate vignetting using this?
- Is that step ring supplied with the lens if requested for that housing?
- Is the 400F (and any step ring) secure on the Ikelite housing with the shallower wet lens thread?
- Also, can you use full zoom capability during dive?
- Is the 400F compatible with any quick release adaptor?
Any help on these queries from anyone with first hand experience would be much appreciated
Many thanks
Alex
