Ikélite dome for tokina 10-17

Hi everybody.

I will go for some dives in the South red Sea on March and I'm on the way to buy a tokina 10-17 lens for my canon 20d in a ikelite housing. The Chart of ikelite is not so easy to undestand with so many options.

If someone has got such a material can he say me if my material is suitable with this lens : dome 5503 and clamps 5509-28 and 9059.8 ?

With my thanks in advance.

Ikelite's chart says you can use the smaller dome port, 5503, without a dome shade with the Tokina 10-17.

I think the consensus on Wetpixel is that you will probably get better results with the 8" dome, 5510.45. For the 10-17 with the 8" dome you need to port body 5510.10 (the smallest one) and you have to replace the standard port locks with the low profile ones that are supplied with the large dome.

You need the 8" the smaller domes are difficult to use and have problems with edge quality and reflections from te joint line of the port,
