W-20 and W-30 Wide-Angle Conversion Lenses
The front of the lens port accepts the Ikelite 6420 W-20, 6430 W-30, and
other 67mm threaded wide angle or macro lenses without the need for
an adapter. An external wide angle conversion lens increases angle of
coverage so you can get closer to the subject while still fitting everything
in the frame. Moderate vignetting will likely occur at widest angle camera
lens setting with these lenses. Zoom in to eliminate, or crop the image in
post processing.
Bayonet mount lenses cannot be used with this housing.
