Request for an image of the WACP-1B
If anyone has a WACP-1B (needs to be the b version), could I ask you to post an image of the rear glass element inside. I'm curious to see if the change to the N100-N120 mount means things are clearer inside to allow for a bigger lens to get closer to the glass. Thanks,

Advice Dome or WWL for whales
Sure, I’m on the road atm but will post a pic when I get back (will be a couple of weeks). I use to place the o-ring on the flat port, there is actually a small bevel on the outer edge of the glass for the ring to fit. I don’t have the flat port with me that I did this with as it’s for an older system but I can check one of the flat ports that I have with me tomorrow when I put my rig together to make sure it’s the same on all of them. The 4mm for me was very tight but it does make a really nice secure fit and allowed for split shots. Is the rear element framing the same in the WWL-1 and WWL-1B?

Advice Dome or WWL for whales
Wow such a great point, diving in Australia that’s not really an issue so never even crossed my mind. I thought diving Melbourne in winter was cold…

Advice Dome or WWL for whales
Grab yourself a 54(outer diameter)x4mm o-ring from a hardware store. I just checked my invoice and it cost 50c. It fits nice and snug between the flat port and the WWL-1 and creates a perfect seal. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen these from Zen but then they charge underwater camera prices. You can attach with bayonet mount in a bucket to add water but it also does a pretty good job dry. If you really wanted you could go the extra mile and use distilled water! The size I quoted was for the original WWL-1 but sure the same would apply to the rest of the WWL family.

Monitor Size: 5" vs 7"?
I’ve also been eyeing up the 7inch Kraken. The weight on paper isn’t too different to the 5.5inch but I’m finding reviews hard to come by.

May I ask which 7inch monitor you’re using?
