SubSee for D800 in Hugyfot housing?

6 posts
  1. Hi there!

     

    Soon i will be back in Sardinia where my D800 housing is waiting patiently to get wet.

    As i bought a SubSee +10 67mm tread macro wet lens for my LX100, i would like to know if somebody uses this combination and if so if he reccommend to get the holder.

     

    Camera: Nikon D800
    Lens: Nikon 105mm VRII
    Housing: Hugyfot

    Port: Hugyfot 100mm diameter flat port

    There are some 67mm holders for the above mentioned port available, but i don't want to pay for it to discover that it's not working good.

     

    Thanks!

    Chris

  2. Hi Chris,

    i use a Subsee +10 with my D300 and the 70 - 180mm micro / macro zoom lens in a Hugy.
    Works fine. But i use a very long port with different diameter....

    Regards,
    Wolfgang

  3. Danke Wolfgang!
    The diameter is not a issue as there are several holders available,

    my main concern is soft corners, unable to focus or too much CA or strong vignetting.

  4. There is a company Saga that make 67 mm flip mounts for different ports.

    I got mine from Reef Photo

  5. Hi Chris,
    sorry dont have the 105mm.
    With my lens there was slow focus, but its an old, slow lens ;-))
    Couldnt see soft corners, vignetting or to much CA.
    But the first two have for sure a close relationship with the lens.

    Use the Subsee as well with my Oly OMD5e and the 60mm macro, fine as well.

    Regards,
    Wolfgang
