Can someone suggest what the ideal Nauticam port combination might be for the Canon 60mm + Keiko 1.4x 300 + Canon Ext Tube 12 II?
I imagine it will fit fine in my port setup for the 100mmL (base port/ext 30/c port 30) but with the shorter working distance on the 60mm I want to make sure I am not loosing too much of that distance with ports that are longer than necessary.
Hi Chris,
i use INON Ports on my Nauticam ... but i use a 13mm extension-ring when adding the Canon Ext Tube 12 II (and that fits quite exactely). I have a different teleconverter from the one you have. but nauticam says on their portchart, that the tokina 10-17 needs a 20mm extension and the tokina with the 1,4 teleplus pro 300 needs a 40mm extension. so a 1,4 by itself should need a 20mm extension ... as this is the difference between the two.
so in combination of the tele and the extension ring you'd need slightly more than 30mm ... so you could either get a 40mm or better 2x20mm (because than you can also use the telekonverter alone (obviously not with the 60mm, but with other lenses).
Thanks Serge,
What do you think about shooting that combo (60+tube+1.4?) vs. just shooting with the 100mm?
