Wet Wide Angle Lens Help

6 posts
  1. I remember seeing a picture of someone diving with a wet wide angle lens that had some kind of attachment to their tray for when they weren't using the wide angle lens, but for the life of me I can't remember what kind/brand of wide angle lens that was.

     

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

     

    Was looking at getting a wet wide angle lens for my Olympus TG-4 but I want to have a place to store it when I'm not using it.

  2. I know inon makes lens holders for their arms and such. Maybe check that out :)

  3. Thanks for the responses. Neither one were what I was thinking of. I want to say that it might be the lens caddy that goes along with the SeaLife lenses: http://shop.sealife-cameras.com/r/en/product.php?product_id=69395

     

    What I wound up purchasing is the Kraken KRL-02 Wide Angle Lens. Now I have to figure out how I'm going to hold onto it/where to put it when I take it off the camera underwater.

  4. Parking the wet wide lens on the bottom of the tray sounds like an excellent way to get it all scratched up when you bring the camera down to the sand for a macro shot. Acrylic domes pick up scratches really easily; you want to park it where it's least likely to touch anything - like, for instance, facing inward off a strobe arm.

  5. I use the WWL-1 with the bayonet mount. The bayonet mounts to a ball mount clamp and can store the WWL-1 out of the way while on a dive.

     

    Simple twist lock design that works pretty well.
