Nauticam vs Saga Flip Adapter
droplet replied to Herb Segars's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
Not really, my had art nr D&DNA-36163 - D&D NAUTICAM M67 Flip Diopter Holder for Macro Port 65 , I do not see this any more. It is similar to link , I guest that port number does not matter as long as it has the same thread M67. I have removed one piece, originally it is designed for two lenses. I used with port 65 and thread M67. -

Olympus 7-14 mm f2.8 will not fit in Nauticam housings
droplet replied to EspenB's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
Did anybody test what minimum aperture value for MZD 7-14 is sufficient to get corners sharp enough? I think that depends on dome size but for Lumix 7-14 with nauti dome 7’’ I have to use f/8 @7mm. -
OM-D E-M5 II stabilization improvement significant?
droplet replied to oskar's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
Probably I will upgrade to E-M5 Mark II from E-M5. The reason are: 1. Better EVF like in E-M1 2. Much better video mode in which I see advantage of new I.S.. I'm waiting for Nauticam propose of new housing. Olympus housing seems to be too high due to new flash. E-M1 with housing was too big for me and video mode was as poor as in E-M5. I do not see any reason to upgrade from E-M1 for someone who does not make video. -
I have found the charts very useful. However I see some issues. 1. For these sets: Panasonic Lumix G Fisheye 8mm f3.5 4.33" dome 36132 *21 Olympus M. Zuiko 12mm F2.0 4.33" dome 36132 *21 is not required : *21 requires extension, 36630 Mini extension port 30 2. For lens Olympus M. Zuiko ED 12-50mm f3.5-6.3 EZ I use alternate Nauticam port Macro port 65 - 36163*7 with Austrian D&D zoom ring

Sorry for misunderstanding. Maybe it fits but not with this my current setup. The case is full. -
Best soft gear bag for traveling
droplet replied to Davide DB's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
The total weight is about 10kg. I encountered two times in Alicante in Spain with Ryanair during boarding that rude staff check very precisely dimension and weight. No mercy with Ryanair ;-) -

Nauticam zoom gears for Olympus 14-42 vs. 9-18
droplet replied to lufik's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
MZD 9-18 and 14-42 II have the same diameter 56.5mm , but old MZD 14-42 has 65.5mm. Your lens has to be 14-42 II -
Wet wide-angle lenses on OM-D+12-50?
droplet replied to Nicool's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
AFAIK Subsee is only for macro. Maybe I miss something but all messages I have read in the OM-D thread about wet lenses concern rather macro issues . -
For sure does not fit to threaded/led light ports with housings PT-EP05L PT-EP0L. Should work with others Olympus housings.

droplet replied to zelko's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
Thanks Jack but according to reefphoto PP0-EP01 can be disasembled to port and adpter ring. hence my willingness to find out if anyone had tried this port with PT-EP05L/PT-EP06L. -

droplet replied to zelko's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
Hi, how to buy "The stock Olympus WITHOUT the four lights and threads"? I have check also price for option of Athena port with adapter: AD/EP05-PTE + (EP/22-PTE+OPF-MP30-PTE)/OPF-MP30-PTE It seems to be over $600, too much for me. Does anyone have any experience with port PPO-EP01 with housing PT-EP06L/PT-EP05L?
