Yes the kit lens is the 28-60mm. Im currently using that lens with wet lens. The 24mm f2.8 is significantly sharper on shore. I was hopping to use the same port and wet lens for it but seems like i need a complete different port and wet lens set up. I will keep the kit lens for Uw and get the 20mm f1.8 for on shore photography instead. Thanks guys Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have an A7C with kit lens and nauticam rig wet wide lens. Sony recently released a tiny 24mm f2.8 that is about the same size as the kit lens. Is the lens compatible with my rig? Has anyone tried to use this lens on an A7C with Nauticam? Asking to see if I should buy this lens. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks. I had a typo. I’m using WWL-1B. I’m using manual setting on Z330s. TTL never works well for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here is another stone fish where there are more angle to play with. I took as low as I could and try to avoid the little rock behind. I adjusted the light up pointing down but the fish is still not isolated enough. How would you have taken this shot? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great feedbacks thank you. Idk a good way to isolate the stone fish. They camouflage so well into the bg and I did not have any good angle to get them into the blue or different color. I’ll play with Depth of Field next time. The eel is not a good shot but i found it is funny to share since it touched my lens and i quickly snapped it. I’m still learning to get the subject isolation and composition to make the photos pop after getting the basic of lighting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good dive sites for UW photography in Hawaii?
imacro replied to imacro's topic in Trip Reports and Travel
I dived with both of the shops. Highly recommend Maui Dream. You will actually dive with Maui Diamond the boat company. They are owned by husband and wife. Ask for Laurel as your DM, she can points out tiny little Nudis. They are the best shop in Maui hands down. Molokini is not bad for macro. I saw a bunch of nudis including blue dragons, some lobster, cleaner shimps. Occasionally you see large creatures like ray or shark or even Whale shark from what I heard. However, I’d recommend Lanai Cathedral site more. The lava cave was stunning with abundant marine life. For Oahu, lower your expectations. Water visibility is not as clear as maui. Wreck dives are better than drift dives which can be very murky. Dive Oahu offers nice boat, modern gears but they have mixed discovery and licensed group. They kinda rush the group back to the line so good luck with macro. I’d recommend Reef Pirate on the east side, they go to Corsair often and can take you to better 2nd site like Sea Cave. Their boat is smaller but they take 6 max, often more advanced divers. Hope that helps. Had fun. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
I have a Sony A7C with kit lens and Nauticam CMC1. I can take some nice macro with this setup like this one However, the working range is very limited. I often found myself not able to get close enough to the subject because of the rocks or corals will block my camera going further. I also have a SEL90mm lens. I’d need to shell out a new port for it. Would it give me better working range and flexibility? How is the photo quality compared to the kit lens with Diopter? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What do you guys think of the after edit photos? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk -
Weird opaque or black line on top of photos??
imacro replied to imacro's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
You guys are spot on. I changed to 1/125 or 1/160 the problem went away Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
