I remember reading somewhere on this forum (I haven't been able to find it by searching) that someone had done a DIY rig that allowed him to attach the Subsee 5+ to the Zen WA100 Dome and was getting good results. I think he use Velcro straps to attach the Olympus macro adaptor to the Zen dome. I just purchased the OMD EM5 MkII (to replace my EPL2) and Olympus housing and I am thinking of not taking the flat port with me on trips if I can attach the Subsee to the front of the Zen dome. I contacted Reefnet and they did not think this will work. If I can find the thread and do some testing myself I am hoping that I can convince them to fabricate a flip holder for use with the WA100. I am hoping to put the Olympus 60 mm behind the dome. I think the person who did this before was using the 14-42 lens. If I could try jury rigging this myself and take a few pictures in a pool, then I would know if it is worthwhile asking Reefnet to fabricate the flip holder.
I would appreciate any pros or cons to this project. I am hoping to install the Zen dome and then hopefully never have to put the Oly flat port on the housing again.
