Aquatic Images 49 Posted July 24, 2021 Have you ever wondered which lens to get for underwater videography? In this video we take a closer look at zoom lenses and why I feel they have the potential to improve your underwater videos. I also give concrete recommendations for specific lenses and focal ranges to choose. I hope you enjoy it! 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evan G 0 Posted July 29, 2021 This is interesting. Curious, will a zoom lens, or regular prime lens still be able to work with a dome port that is intended for a fisheye lens? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tinman 31 Posted July 30, 2021 If you look at the port/lens charts from different manufacturers, you'll generally see that the dome ports recommended for use with fisheye lenses are often the same as those recommended for primes and renticular zoom lenses are the same. This said, there are a some exceptions. For example, I have one dome port that's specifically designed for my Nikkor 10-24mm zoom. While the dome ports used with different lenses are often the same, The length of port extensions used with lenses differ depending on the focal length of lenses. Just take a look at the port/lens charts available on different housing manufacturers' websites. You'll see which dome ports and extension combinations work with what lenses and see which lenses require specifically designed dome ports. -Tinman 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
