I'm faced with a few new decisions since hoping into the dslr world. Thank you to all of those members who have already answered a few of my newbie questions. I have an additional one for users of nauticam's new 4.33" mini dome.
Any opinions of it? I'm aware of a number of the pros and cons of using mini domes in general already so I am more interested in specifics of this one in particular.
How are you using it (*which lens? TC, etc.)?
Any have you compared it to any other domes especially the smaller domes available?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Phil
Hi Phil,
I have used the new Aquatica mini-dome on trip to date which was to Sri Lanka to dive the HMS Hermes, It was used with a 5D MKII and the Canon 15mm Fish Eye and also the fisheye with a Kenko 1.4x teleconverter and I found it useful for the trip light weight and smaller volume then the 8" dome port.
It is not suitable for lenses other than the fisheye (you will get horrible edge distortions). So it all comes down to what lens you have and what you want to do. Here is a link to the photos from the trip.
