Amphibico fxz1 phenom white balance...

[lutfu 118]

hello

With the amphibico phenom fxz1 housing can I go for auto white balance and turn back to manual again underwater?

Iit seems like I can't find a way to do so.

thanks

you have to turn off the camera and then turn it on again to do that.

Thanks a lot,yes that works............also I have an other question, can we seperate the dome part of the 94 angle wide lens to make a cleaning . Is it possible to do? There seems some dust between the lens and the dome, I want to get rid of them......thanks..

Hmm, not sure about that, I have not tried to do that with mine, might be better to send to Aquatica/Amphibico for them to do that professionally

I had my lens replaced a few years back after I bumped into the side of a wreck. I decided it was not worth the risk and got the agent to replace it. So yes it can be done.

Sory !!! An other question.By the way I managed to take the dome element off and managed to clean and replaced it, it was hard work though.

My other question is how do you place the 2 filters in their places in the phenom bousing, I'm trying to put a macro and a red filter in , but it seems like there is no space for 2 filters at the same time,so why there is 2 filter places in the housing? I must be doing something wrong.....

Thanks again...

I think you can only use 1 filter with the 94 degree dome port since the retrofit to fix vignetting. I believe you can use 2 filters on the other available port ( macro dome). You could always put the red filter directly to the camera and the macro on the drop down filter. I will put a macro on the drop down and use lights so no need for colored filter.
