Inon Z240 Color Temperature Conversion Filter / diffuser

17 July 2012 - 07:00 AM

Are there anyone who has used the new Inon Z240

Color Temperature Conversion Filter / diffuser?


In your experience, what is the best choice for shooting Wide angle in tropical water?

Color Temperature Conversion Filter (4900K)?

Color Temperature Conversion Filter (4600K)?

-0.5 (4900K) Diffuser 2 (TTL/Manual)?
-0.5 (4600K) Diffuser 2 (TTL/Manual)?

My preliminary thought is that, as the Inon Z240 has some degree of light fall off, the -0.5 diffuser option may be better but that will mean loss of half-stop of light.

Is the 4600K too strong for tropical waters?

Thanks!

Wide angle rectilinear - a redundant gear for full frame?

30 April 2012 - 07:41 AM

For all the full frame shooters - how often your wide angle rectilinear (16/17-35) got used ? especially when compared to:

1. the Fisheye, and
2. Fisheye + TC combo ?

Are you using the WA rectilinear mostly at the widest end? and if yes why not just stick to the FE + TC which is much lighter, with less drag in water ?

Full-frame fisheye + teleconverter + Zen mini-dome combo

23 April 2012 - 06:22 AM

I know there has been several posts on the Zen mini-dome already, but most have focussed on the Tokina 10-17 combo.

Being a full-frame shooter I don't have this lens option as such and I'm not keen on the Tokina+ teleconverter option either.

Has anyone in this forum used the Sigma 15mm FE + Kenko 1.4 TC combo behind the Zen DP-100 mini-dome?

1. How is the image quality? (pictures welcome)

2. How much extension you need? - Is the EXR 33mm good enough?

Thanks!
