    ttl solution for 10bar LX5

    I have just got a mikedive ttl converter for the panasonic lx5 and 10bar housing with inon z240 strobe.. Done several above water tests changing shutter speeds/apertures, so far it has produced consistant results. Hoping to test it underwater very soon.

    LX5 housing problem

    the rear dial controller on the 2 ikelite housings i received were different as mentioned, is there something missing from the one pictured? I have returned the second housing and replaced it with a 10bar housing. Not what I wanted as this has incurred a lot more cost for me. However i am very...

    LX5 housing problem

    thanks for the reply Jean... the camera was securely fitted to the tray and the bottom of the camera was also flush with the tray. I refitted the camera several times wanting it to work as it should as I have an Ikelite strobe, but this made no difference...the camera did install a lot easier...

    lx5 housing

    Jean...that is a shame...the ike housing would have been on par with the 10bar housing for wide angle options (18mm wide angle with good image quality). what would be the "significant gain in angle of coverage" with the W-20? would you not have to zoom in several steps to avoid vignetting...

    ikelite lx5

    what would you suggest to be the best wide angle solution using the LX5 in an ikelite housing? what is the image quality like when using a wet conversion lenses such as FIX UWL-04 Fisheye Wet Mount Conversion Lens or a inon UWL 100-M67? does anybody have examples to show?
