COMPATIBILITY 

 

The 

UWL-09F Wide Angle Lens

 can be mounted on 67mm threaded lens ports or other lens ports 

by using an adaptor. For a selection of adaptors available, please visit our website -

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

 

1.

 

Please use the utmost care and do not use excessive force when assembling and 
disassembling the lens, in order not to cause any damage to the product.    

2.

 

The UWL-09F lens comes with the 

type-A adaptor

 preassembled. This adaptor allows 

mounting the lens on almost all housing lens ports featuring a 67mm thread. Note that 
an additional narrower adaptor is separately included in the package and marked as 

type-B adaptor

. When installed on the UWL-09F Lens instead of the 

type-A adaptor,

 the 

type-B adaptor 

allows the lens glass to be positioned closer to the housing lens port and 

the camera lens (image #1), resulting with even better optic performance and enhanced 
results. This configuration, however, is only compatible with some of the housings.
