I purchased a Samsung V4 with underwater housing last week. I haven't had the opportunity to test it underwater yet, but this should be remedied by Friday.

The lens port on the underwater housing is threaded. I tested it in the camera shop and the standard 46mm conversion lenses and filters fit on it. Unfortunately, these are not designed for underwater use.

I know that Sea & Sea makes a whole host of conversion lenses for Sony, Olympus and Panasonic digital cameras. However, I can't see on any of the spec sheets what thread they are designed for.

Would it be possible for me to attach a 20mm conversion lens to the lens port on my camera housing? If so, how?

Thanks for the help. I will post some photos from Friday (if they are any good :)) as there are some old posts about the V4 asking about its suitability for u/w use.

Cheers,

Andrew
