My experience with the MFO-1
in air, my MFO on a 105, can only focus up to +/- 30 cm in front of my port, anything beyond it wont focus. In water, its up to +/- 100 cm (like on the nauticam port chart). So i do believe, water has a big impact in how this lens works, although I dont know how it affects image quality. I would not use the mfo without water between port and wetlens.

Eneloop Pro Accu issue
im using Panasonic BQ-CC55 chargers. I did have one or two dead batteries a long time ago, but not in recent years. I allways travel with a few extra batteries. I do try to keep the eneloops bundled in pairs of 4, Never had issues like in your pictures myself

drying ports and water optics in the field?
Hi all! what routine do you follow for drying your ports and water contact optics in between dives? One of my old macro ports is hammered with water stains / glass corosion, I nowdays try to avoid water from drying on to my ports. However, I wonder how other photograghers handle this issue, if they dry their ports and if so, with what (towell, paper, micro fiber etc) like to hear! greetings Robin

MFO-1 and focus limiter
I did try the MFO with a 60 mm macro, it works nice on pretty close subjects, but it starts to vignet (badly) at subjects at a little more distance. I guess this will make it not so usefull on even wider lenses, although i havent tried it.

Retra Pro Max accessories
I do use the diffusers, the green water here is full of sediment, I use the white diffusers here. When i go to tropical diving, I plan to get the wide angle diffusers, for the little color shift. I also use reduction rings, that also stay on when transporting the strobes. I dont use bumpers / neoprene covers. Didnt try the reflectors myself, might look into that at some point 😁
