LX5 10bar housing + dome port question

Hi Holg,
Thank you for the pictures, you are very kind.
I used an anti slip tape TESA (0,6 mm thickness) and it works very well.
The grip is good now.

Hi,
@ scipionems, nice photos!
@ Holg, did you send the back cover to your dealer or to 10Bar?
I was in Mozambique last week and i took some photos with the LX5 and my old LX3 housing, here are some samples:

More samples here: Tofo Bay 10, Mozambique - a set on Flickr

Wow fantastic pictures Shaker, thank you for sharing with us.
I didn't know that the 10 bar Housing for LX3 was good even for LX5.
I have a friend with this housing but his lx3 is broken, I will tell him this good news.
Thank you Shaker

The LX5 will "almost" fit in the LX3 housing. It's only 1,2mm larger then the LX3, but with some modifications one can get the camera objective aligned with port axis. But getting the new rear wheel for manual control working is difficult to do, but not impossible. If your friend is interested i can send him all informations he need.

I try to post some pictures of Philippines here .
@Shaker: I use two Inon D2000 connected with fiber optic to my Lx5.

All the pictures made with Panasonic Lx5 in 10Bar Housing, with one (or two) Inon D2000 Strobe and Inon ucl 165 macro lens.

No question about the photo capabilities of the camera. Have you video to share?

Thanks.
