I recently purchased a Tokina 10-17 FE lens and took it to the pool today. I found that at 10mm, the dome shade was visible on the edges. If I zoomed to about 12mm, the shade disappeared. I'm wondering if I am doing something wrong or I just have to accept things as they are.
I'm using a Nikon D70 (I know it's ancient, but got it free!), Aquatica housing, 8" dome port and Aquatica dome shade. I am NOT using the recommended Aquatica extension ring (about 1/2") as that would move the dome out further and compound the problem. Or does it change the position of the virtual image?
Seems that I either remove the shade or accept the limitation.
Advice??
With that camera and lens you should be using a 18480 dome shade. I suspect you have a wrong dome shade on. The shade you are using must have high sides on it. I would check aquatica site and see which shade you have. The low sided shade is built for fisheye lens.

saga7: That's it. I have the 18482 shade, the larger one. I'll look into getting the smaller shade.
