Thanks again. I currently own the ff:
Fix 3 piece 67mm mount
Inon UCL165M67 macro lens
and Inon 67mm double lens caddies
The UWL100-67 seems like a good choice but I'm afraid it might add too much weight to my rig and make it front heavy when on the housing, or unbalanced when on the caddy. It is also quite expensive with the dome lens.
I do always consider forward compatibility with my purchases so I don't end up spending more in the long run. I am using a single ys-27dx with two 5 inch segments but will switch to double ys-110a's soon. I will probably get two 8 inch segments (should I use buoyancy arms?) so I can have 1 5" and 8" segment on each arm. I noticed you don't use buoyancy arms, do you have any weight issues underwater?
I hope I am not bothering you with too many questions
Hi Nemrod, i've just received my fix housing and got it wet for the first time on the weekend, Crap vis tho so no pics of note
I'm looking at lenses etc now, and (having never owned or used wet lenses before) like the idea of the bayonet mounts for ease of use. So looking at your recommendation above of:
The new FIX 52mm single piece mount
The FIX three piece 67mm mount
The FIX UWL-04 lens
The Inon UCL165AD macro lens
10Bar adapter
this looks like an awesome setup but from what i can see would involve threaded mounts for the wide angle lens? i dont know for sure but imagine threads can be a bit fiddly underwater? is there a way to take a 67mm threaded lens (e.g. the FIX UFL-04) and put an adapter on that so that it has an AD bayonet mount? E.g. get the 28 AD adapter on the housing, then use a 10bar 28AD-67mm adapter on each wet lens?
Otherwise i think i'll go with the Fix 28AD adapter and the UFL165AD
thanks heaps!
