Sea & Sea announces optical dome port

The well-known manufacturer of underwater housings seems to have taken customer feedback into account and has announced a new huge domeport for special applications made from glas instead of acryllic material. However the dome is not a full sphere, but almost there. With 181mm it lines up underneath the Seacam Superdome which still marks the top of the line in available dome port size and glas finish. Nevertheless existing Sea&Sea customers might enjoy this new option. Even non-Sea&Sea housing owners might benefit from that as companies such as Light&Motion and Hugyfot seem to have adapters out on the streets for using it on their housings.

Product number 30104

This AR multi-coated glass dome port is ideal for wide-angle photography with a digital single-lens-reflex camera. It comes with a port case and a dome port cover.

Features

• Greatly reduces peripheral aberration (distortion) so images are clear from corner to corner.
• Efficient light transmission sharpens images.
• Greatly reduces flare when shooting into light.
• Made of glass so it sheds water droplets, excellent for clear over/under shots (half above water, half below).
• Aged deterioration resistant than an acrylic dome port.
