I saw this at the recent UK Go Diving Show on the Underwater Visions stand run by Alex Tattersall. It looked absolutely gorgeous and as always with Nauticam Housings, super sleek. It is made from hard-anodized aluminium alloy with a depth rating of 150 metres and as stand with all of their housings, has beautiful easy-to-use controls including a rotary housing lock. Each lens has a 190 degree angle of view and is made up of three elements in two groups. These are coated with anti-reflection material. However, to be able to use it, the outer lenses of the X5 need to be removed. Don't worry, there is a tool included with the housing.

Nice @Gmsalterego Look forward to seeing your footage with it. Have fun :) Maria

Hi Mike, Can I ask what set-up you have? Yes, absolutely you can shoot with it on your rig, but lighting and positioning are crucial to achieve the best footage. You would need to position it slightly ahead of the main lens to avoid obstructing the view. Mounting wise, you could use a small arm or a mini-dual ball head directly to the rig to hold it in place. Or if you are using the official selfie stick, position it so that the side stitch lines are parallel with the main camera lens to prevent your subjects being split by the stitch line. I saw a Nauticam 360 housing at the Go Diving Show at the weekend which I'm obsessed with. Good luck and hope this helps. Maria

That's an amazing achievement 🙌 Huge well done to everyone who's contributed! Maria

Hi @Klaus "Spray and pray" that made me giggle 😂 My mode with a compact is "hit and hope" mode for splits. It's really so hard to judge when the water is moving, you really need flat conditions to judge it. Here's my effort with my Olympus TG-6 and INON UWL-100 wide angle lens. It's not edited. Good luck with the journey, it's all about patience and practice.

The brilliant Go Diving Show hits Coventy this weekend - is anyone going? With talks by Nur Tucker from the British Society of Underwater Photographers, Jenny Stock, Nicolas Fazah, Marcus Rose and Martin Maple, Raf Jah, Dan Abbott on underwater photography and many more incredible speakers aside, plus the Underwater Photographer of the Year talk and display, I'm really looking forward to it.

Hi @Lou Luddington Welcome from me, absolutely loved reading your story and look forward to seeing more of your work on here. There's nothing more magical than getting lost in a kelp forest with dreamy natural light rays all around you here in the UK. Come and say hi if you're passing Swanage. Have a lovely day :) Maria

Hey @Nando Diver Thanks for sharing this news, it looks very interesting and look forward to seeing more when they are released. Maria

Hey @Chris Ross Not sure why I missed this post too. Really nice to see you back in your underwater home creating beautiful images. The Posing Peacock Mantis Shrimp is amazing, totally love how it's just looking straight at you. It's so hard to beat Lembeh for Macro Magic. Thanks for sharing these. Maria

Hey @Alon A big welcome from me, hope that it's warmer where you are than here in Sunny England. Which mirrorless system do you have? Look forward to seeing your images. Have a great day! Maria Ocean Visions Photography

Hey @Valerie Wrede This is beautiful work, so well done! What system are you shooting with? Absolutely love the Philippines - always such a great variety of both wide angle and macro subjects. Thanks for sharing and look forward to seeing more of your work. Maria Ocean Visions Photography

Bienvenue from me too :) Hope it's slightly warmer where you are, it's bitter here across the Channel 🏴 I've just answered your question about ideas for family trips. I hope it helps. Have a great weekend! Maria Ocean Visions Photography
