XA25 Operation 

Page 29 

 

Diopters 

Diopters may be used with the XA25 housing and the FP32A Flat Port for close 
up/macro imaging.  There is sufficient space between the camera and port to utilize up 
to three diopters stacked on the camera.  The camera utilizes diopters in a 58mm holder. 

 

NOTE

 the Filter cannot be used with diopters.  When installing the camera with 

diopters ensure the filter is positioned as far as possible away from the port opening.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

Buoyancy and Trim 

Your XA25 housing is designed to be slightly negative and balanced when using the 
GP32A Wide Angle port, which is the most common combination of housing / port.  

When using the SP32B or FP32B ports, you will find the housing slightly positive in 
buoyancy.   

Diopters can be threaded onto the camera 
directly.
