First lense

I am getting a seconhand setup and while i am waiting for some cash to arrive into my account I am looking into a suitable first lense and port.

\The setup is a nikon D70 with sea & sea housing I was thinking 60mm macro lense and standard flatport. But has anyone got any other suggestions this will be my firs venture into DSLR underwater photography

That sounds perfect. You will get a lot of use out of a 60mm Micro lens. It's good for photographing stuff from shrimp sized up to bread-box sized fish.

Cheers

Hi Whacky,

I use the D50 with a 60mm for macro pictures. Must say I am still glad I bought the 60mm.

Use it with an Ikelite housing and port.

HI,

I would say that most on these forums used or have used the 60mm micro

with great results I am also one of these, so it would be a great lens to get

started.

That was easy enough I will get the 60mm then.

Which leads me onto another question, sea & sea have a selection of ports to use with this. what are the pro's and con's of the various types of port?
