Fisheye UWL-04 M52/67 on native 35mm camera

[Baruke]

Hi,

I have a Canon A590Is with Ikelite housing (with 67mm treat), and I would like to know if the Fisheye UWL-04 M52/67 would work on it.

There is anybody there that experimented any kind of setup?


Thanks for any reply

I had the near identical Ikelite housed 570. In my opinion, you will find it required to zoom to about 40ish degrees to eliminate vignetting.

The Inon UWL100-67 will work and with the dome it works even better, expensive too.

Thank you Nemrod,

My question could be silly, after I tell you that I already have a UWL-100 without dome.

The problem, is that I made 3 little dot (not scratchs) on the front glass. I think they aren´t visible now underwater, but I can see it like little grey spots above water. So, they would be seen with dome.

I´m trying too see if it´s possible to replace the front glass or to repair it (with original coating), and if it cost less than a new on (around 280€).
I know that polish the front glass could remove the dots, but also removes the INON´s chromatic coating.

The Dome is about 400€, so I thought in others possibilities like the UWL-04 (that cost almost the same).
But I understand, that the Inon is better. I wouldn´t like to have a 400€ lens with soft corners.

Even if I migrate in the future to one solution like S90/S95, the Inon UWL-100+Dome is very usable, as I understood from your posts here and in the other forum (where I use to post too).

Thanks again
