Thanks a lot and sorry for misusing your thread!

Hi Mark, we were thinking about Galapagos, too. Did you go with a specific operator? Can you recommend any? Especially freediving/ snorkeling is also our favorite. best Martin

121 at it’s best. Always good to have one “knowsbetterthaneveryone” here… I don’t agree. Even wide f=7.1 open the quality is quite good.

Same for me I use an old neoprene shorty, and took one of the legs off, this has the right size. Just close one of the epos with cable binder, and you are ready. If the neoprene is not sized XXXXL it should fit.

Surprisingly good results!

Hi Wolfgang, you are right. I thought that the same applies to WACP as to WWL...

I only can comment on the WACP-C that should be very similar to the WWL-C (only having the additional water between port and lens). Here the difference between WACP-C and WACP-1b seems small in my eyes, same should apply for the comparison between WWL-C and WWL-1

Depends on the camera-lens combination. Sony-28-60 works really well with the Nauticam-solutions made for smaller sensors (WACP-C, WWL-C). AFAIK other combinations doesn't work as well.

I agree, the wetlenses are a bit prone to flares, but the red-yellow colored spots seem more to be related to flash. The ones from the sun are different in color. (WACP-C) Shot from the underwater workshop in Marsa Shargra showing the flashes in the "rabbit ears" position. 🐇

Focuses 5cm from front lens, could be very interesting as well behind a dome as behind the FCP. My FCP has been stolen while being at PanOcean so I am not able to test... 😞

On my computer itseems to work. Fascinating!

PanOcean was burgled and various underwater photography accessories were stolen. Please keep your eyes open - with our small community we should be able to help catch the thieves. Nauticam articles were all registered - if there are particularly favourable offers or anything else seems strange to you, ask Roland or Nauticam directly! https://taucher.net/forum-achtung__diebesgut_im_umlauf-ioz94787?page=1

*edit sorry, it's on their website: 60grms without booster, 150g with booster.

Additional question from my end: Do the new Pro max differ in boyancy? Do they have weight in water without supercharger of 170g each as stated by Dreifish?

Good decision. A7RV is surely good choice above and below the surface.

It‘s absolutely worth the trip. More adventures in a week than others have in 10 years. Thanks for your comment!

Hi Frase, I had the same question about the 1635PZ and a dome and got hte hint AFAIK from Alex Mustard that the performance over water is great but under the surface it is noch recommended. I own the WACP-C and am really happy about sharpness and fully usable zoom range with the 28-60. I'd recommend it. And as ChipBPhoto pointed out - in fact I went for the FCP and will use it in two weeks for the first time in the red sea. The WACP-C can be found in the classified section 😁. Attached one of the pics with the WACP-C

Sure, why not?

Hi Ido, surprisingly exactly as it is. We were 10 divers and one guide. That didn't feel too much. The other divers and I wondered why the guide was so cautious.... On our way back to Miami one of the other guys mentioned that usually there are two guides in the water but this time that wasn't possible because the other guide had surgery in Miami because of a shark bite in the hand. This happended when the guide tried to redirect one of the tigers from one of the divers. In fact some of the guests were very careful and respectful but others tried to touch the sharks, pet them, grab their fins... in the end those 6-7m fish are still wild animals.

Just came back from Grand Bahama. Booked 10 dives, only 3 happened because of bad conditions and one of the guides had been bitten by a tiger a week before. But got credited the missing dives so have to go back to Grand Bahama somehow in the future. Some impressions

Ah, there it is: https://wetpixel.com/forums/index.php?/topic/70736-any-tamron-28-75mm-wacp-1-users/&tab=comments#comment-448475

Where's that from? I looked at the digitalkamera.de review and it states that the lens increases its length from 12,3cm to 14,1cm. That doesn't seem too much. But I remember that this lens has already been in discussion here, don't know where.... https://www.digitalkamera.de/Zubehör-Test/Testbericht_Tamron_28-75_mm_F2_8_Di_III_VXD_G2_A063S/12902.aspx
