ce4jesus 1 Posted February 23, 2006 just curious if anyone has tried to adapt this wet conversion lens to their point and shoot housing and what kind of results they got. Thanks, Gary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mattdiver 0 Posted February 26, 2006 Actually, Sea&Sea themselves produce adapter rings for P&S cameras (or at least they used to). I've used the Sea&Sea 16mm and 2T lenses with various P&S cameras a few years ago. The angle of coverage and depth of field are great, but you get a bit of vignetting with the 16mm on some camera models. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
averell 0 Posted March 7, 2006 Hello, Someone on ebay sells new sea&sea conversion lens adapters for canon WP-DC100 & WP-DC200 housings. I've bought one for $20 with a direct offer and it just fits my WP-DC30 housing. I've just had to drill a hole in the adapter and unscrew the flash diffuser. Right now I am waiting for a 1:2 macro lens + 20mm wa lens that I bought on ebay too for less than $200. I will post some pics as it's complete. bye Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Send me a PM with your housing model and I can let you know if it's possible and give you a price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Larry C 24 Posted March 21, 2006 Hi Gary, The S & S 16mm WA lens has been used on the PT-030 with a 52-58 clamp on S & S adaptor for the 67 mm thread on the Nikonos V type lens. http://www.digitaldiver.net/yabbse/i...418;st art=15 Additional note: latest word from Ryan is that Inon will show it's PT-030 adaptor in the next couple of days and have it available in April sometime for macro, wide (105 degree UWL165) and semi fisheye lenses. This will be bayonet type with a short twist on and off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ce4jesus 1 Posted March 31, 2006 Well I couldn't resist the price I paid on the Sea&Sea 16mm so I went ahead and purchased it. I had to urgently grab whatever stepper rings I could find on the market to go from 58mm down to the 46mm on the PT-030 housing. This included 3 steps. While this is not ideal it worked in a pinch. The vingetting was expected but I was surprised to see how well it worked even with 3 stepper rings. When I eliminate two of them, it should work even better. I've only experimented with it inside the swimming pool but the results have been great. I'm very happy with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
