PT-EP13 housing port diameter

[Midget]

I’m hoping someone can give me this info as I can’t find it anywhere on the net.
I plan to buy one, but want to know if my SubSee flip (100-110 mm) for Ike-S will fit it.

Thanks in advance!

Here is a reefnet write up on your adapter. There is a range of adapter mounts. You may want to contact either Sub See or try Jack Connick here on Scubaboard or any of the photo equipment suppliers here.

Sorry. What I meant is I plan to buy the housing. Already have the flip adapter, but don’t know if it will fit the housing. A friend wants to buy the flip, but I’ll hang onto it if it fits the Olympus housing.

Depends on the port; do you mean the regular port with the red plastic front? The batteries were dead in my digital calipers, but it looks like it measures 120mm. Yours probably won't work, but I believe that Reefnet has a swing away adapter designed specifically for it. There's also an older 4/3 flat port- I used to run that with a swing away adapter along with the 12-40; it was a good option for fish portraits and near-macro shots (with a diopter)- the 12-40 is sharp enough to give you some head room to crop. For what it's worth, I've since gone to a dome and the dedicated macro port (which has 67mm threads) for all around better performance- I just have to choose one or the other.

Thanks, Furnari!

Just realized that the EP13 is not the housing I thought it was; the 4/3 port I mentioned will not work, but everything else I wrote is true. Here's the swing away adapter I mentioned:
