  2. hey Gary,

     

    Did you use a dioptre at all?

     

    Take any CFWA? How was the corner sharpness? Looks pretty good on the turtle shots. Just wondering if you shot any subjects at less than 30cm away and how the corners would be on that?

  3. Mike,

     

    Stay tuned ....

     

    I'm sure Garry will shoot a few just for you tomorrow :P:wub:

  4. Hi Mike,

    No dioptre, just the lens. It's a little softer in the corners but not to bad. Pictures haven't been cropped so corners are as you see. Water had a lot of crap in it 15m would have been best vis for the day so no real opportunity to do CFWA. The following was less than 30cm he was almost sitting on the dome.

    As Peter has said, I will try some different options tomorrow, and let you know how it goes.

     

    But bare with me it's only my 2nd week underwater with an SLR, so still on a step learning curve

     

    Regards

  6. Thanks Gary

     

    I have a few things in mind that i want to shoot with this lens, it was my main WA lens on film but i haven't used it underwater on digital yet.

     

    Unfortunately, the stuff i want to shoot with it aren't found in Yap... haha

  7. Mike,

    Not the best pics, but was this the cfwa stuff you mentioned?

    The closest I could get it to focus was 18cm from the front of the dome

     

    Regards
