Wonderful pictures Renee.My initial test shots of PT-050 + Inon UCL165 M67 close-up lens. No vignetting underwater (while no zoom), only very tiny corner coverage on land. All photos are having w/ UCL165 M67 here: Anilao, Philippines, April 2011 - a set on Flickr ...

Gear : Olympus XZ-1 + PT-050 + Inon UCL165 M67 + Inon D2000 flash + Sola 600
Thoughts after test :
1. Need to zoom to get focus right by eye, can't follow the Green box for focus ref.
2. Can't really get pigmy seahorse well by a single close-up lens, too difficult to focus when zooming a lot (for eye focus purpose).
3. We need that super macro flash to be unlocked for firing external strobe. You need to stay away for min 10cm on land to get focus for macro mode, and appears to me it's far more away u/w.

An underwater ring LED would work too.....
