  1. Hey all I have two discontinued S&S ports for which I'm trying to find new O-rings: Extension Ring 20L (SS30123) and DX Macro Port 52 (SS30111). I've searched a few websites but haven't found any. Does anyone have an idea where I can find those? Thanks 🙂
  2. thank you! so far, I couldn't find too much information and non-affiliated reviews, but from what I read so far, the opinions are somewhere in the middle about the concept of this housing, and no one talked about the quality of the glass or housing itself and the compatibility of the port system.
  3. Hey all Is there an Easydive housing user here who can give a review for this housing? Is this housing still good in 2024? I have a sony a6300 with fantasea housing, and I really like the idea of not having to change the housing when I change camera body (let's say from a6300 to a6700 or a7iv). Does anyone knows how the port system works or what is the difference between the different housings they offer?
  4. A little tip I learned about WA- bigger isn't better (dome wise..) If you want something nice for traveling then consider fish lens (canon 8-15) and a 100mm / 4.33" dome.
  5. You can always start with just the kit lens and maybe some wet lenses to get the feel of it underwater and then move in the direction that fits you better. I started with the Sony A6300 (fantasea housing) and Sony 16-50 kit lens with the AOI +12.5 diopter. I then realized I liked macro better and bought the Sony 50mm macro (which now I replaced with the Sony 90mm macro). Which housing are you using and which FF body do you have?
  6. Do you this lens will work with the more compact domes? Like 4.5" or 6"?
  7. Can I use the Nauticam 18803 dome port for the tokina 10-17?
  8. Any Nauticam 4.33 acrylic dome? It doesn't need to be the N120?
  9. Hey all I'm going to buy a Nauticam NA6700 housing, and I have a few questions that maybe someone here can help me with: 1. Which flash trigger should I buy? I'm using 2 Scubalamp D-pro strobes, and I prefer a rechargeable one over a non-rechargeable one. 2. How does the vacuum system work? I need to purchase the M14 vacuum valve, and that's it. Is there a better option? 3. I plan to use the Tokina 10-17 lens, but I've heard that the Tokina port (na18804) is no longer available. Do you know of any alternative dome ports that would be compatible? 4. Can I use Sigma mc11 instead of the metabones adaptor? Thank you 🙂
  10. Hey all I'm looking to buy SEA & SEA OPTICAL DOME PORT II 100 L for Canon 8-15 (ss-30135). I saw on Backscatter it sells for 1150$, so please make reasonable offers 🙂
  11. Sticky as in you press it and it get stuck / takes time to bounce back? With camera buttons after every dive I wash it with fresh water and press all the buttons (even those I didn't pressed on that dive) under the water stream, and then dry it with a towel by pressing the buttons while holding the towel. Usually that keeps them working. I had a button that got stuck once, my housing manufacturer told me to do my regular routine and if that doesnt work to try soak it in a 50/50 solution (viniger - water), play with the button until it gets free and then wash it with fresh water. I'm not sure about computer buttons as I'm not sure it has the same isolation as housing buttons. My recommendation to you is to ask your dive shop or email the company.
  12. Price is now 2250$ (OBO), including shipping worldwide
  13. For sale are these three parts: 36205- Nauticam N85 to N100 65mm Port Adapter for N85 Housings to N100 Ports. 37123- Nauticam N100 Macro Port 55. 36173- Nauticam Zoom Gear: Sony 10-18mm f/4 WA Zoom Lens. Price for all is 900 Euro including shipping (OBO)
  14. Good question The only prime fisheye lens I've seen on some port charts is the Sigma 15mm diagonal
  15. Which is better, the 4.33" nauticam dome or the zen 100mm dome? It seems impossible to find the nauticam 18804 for purchase
  16. Hey all So what are my options for fisheye lenses with sony aps-c in a nauticam housing? Is it only the Tokina 10-17 or sony 16 with fisheye converter? Anyone tried other lenses and domes and got good results? Also, why nauticam is only stating the Metabones adaptor and not sigma mc11 as well? Is there a major difference between them or somthing? Thanks 🙂
  17. Thank you guys! So it looks like I'll be sticking to the sony a6700 with sony 90mm and tokina 10-17 in a nauticam housing (new housing & used ports).
  18. I'm still caught in that debate on FF vs APS-C. Currently I have Sony a6300 (Fantasea housing) and I want to upgrade it but I don't know to ehich camera... a6700 / A7rIV / A7IV. Housing will be either used nauticam / issota or a new marelux system. The 6700 is the easy choise as it is cheaper and more compact option The a7riv is the more high end and more expensive option I believe the a7iv is somewhere in between. My wallet say to go with the a7riv but my heart wants the a7riv. I'm doing mostly macro (sony 90mm macro) and I want to do fish eye wide lens (tokina 10-17 / canon 8-15). Sometime I print a photo or too, mostly on a3 size. Which camera should I choose?
  19. I'm currently still debating myself if I should do thus move also (a6300 -> a6700) or just move to a7r4 / a7r5
