Anyone have any experience with Ikelite's compact 8" dome vs the regular 8" dome? I'm wondering if it works better for close focus, or avoids the need for a diopter in more situations.

the compact dome is 6 inch, otherwise they would have the same size. for close focus WA, the compact dome might be more practical, the larger dome makes underovers easier. if you use non fishey lenses, your probably best off with a 8 inch dome. There is also a 3th party dome that is specifically aimed at CFWA (http://www.uwcamerastuff.com/precision_5_dome.htm). The link also includes a comparison in image quality.

I have the 8" dome that I use with my 16-35 f4L lens. Absolutely love it. I don't have any experience with the compact dome.
