Description
Get up close and fit more in the frame when photographing coral reefs, whale sharks, or schools of fish by adding Fantasea Line's UWL-09F Underwater Wide-Angle Conversion Lens onto your camera housing. Equipped with a 67mm mounting thread, the accessory lens is compatible with many ports on housings from various brands. Easily attached underwater, it increases your coverage significantly, offering a 130 angle of view when used with a 28mm camera lens. The dome-shaped, 0.45x lens magnifies images to a lesser degree than a flat one does and corrects for the underwater size distortion that makes everything appear 25% larger and closer. The outer dome is crafted from hard-coated polycarbonate, and the lens features 5 glass elements with multi-layered, anti-reflection coatings as well. Built for durability, the bezel is constructed from a hard-coated aluminum alloy.Optical Performance Increases coverage, providing a 130 angle of view when used with a 28mm camera lens (35mm equivalent)Counteracts decrease in angle of view that occurs beneath the water's surface5 multi-layered, anti-reflective elements in 5 groups provide excellent optical clarity, while eliminating chromatic aberration and flare caused by the sun or strobes/lightsMagnification: 0.45xDome magnifies images to a lesser degree than a flat front element does, and corrects for the underwater size distortion that makes everything appear 25% larger and closerAllows for extremely close focusingGreat for over-under/split shots, where half the frame is above the water's surface and the other half is below itConstruction Details Depth rating: 200'Pre-mounted Type A adapter with 67mm threads for attachment to camera housing's lens portBase of the mount is covered by a rubber ring to ensure a firm grip during attachment and removalIncludes two adapters for use on housing ports with different accessory mountsGlass elementsPolycarbonate dome with protective hard coating to prevent scratchesAluminum alloy bezel and barrel with hard, black anodized finish for excellent resistance to corrosionTwo rotatable scalloped edges serve as a built-in hood, shading the lens to prevent glareAccessories Lens includes a quick-release line/tether to keep it secured to the housing, even when it's not mounted onto the portCorrosion-resistant front and rear caps to protect the lens when it's not in usePadded carrying case for safe, convenient storage and transportation
