Adapter ring for Gates housings (Z90, AX700, NX80 & AX100) with Inon UWL-95S 67mm + Dome Lens Unit 3 optical glass (141º)

SAGA presents a new adaptation to use the Inon UWL-95S 67mm dome + Dome lens unit 3 optical glass with Gates Z90, AX700, NX80 & AX100 housings.

This adaptation is made of anodized aluminum material and consists of inner O-rings to create a watertight space that connects the Inon dome to the Gates housing via a compatible bayonet.

With this dome we can achieve 141º, a quite significant increase compared to the GP 34 A WA dome that could originally be used with this Gates housing, which had a maximum range of 91º.

Here we see a comparison to appreciate the difference in final range:

We can also appreciate the difference in sharpness obtained with the Inon lens thanks to its glass dome.

**Important note:

The internal filter flip with the URPRO internal red filter is NOT operational with the new wide angle and therefore you have to place the FIXED INTERNAL RED filter with double sided tape IN FRONT OF THE LENS OF THE CAMERA LENS Z90 , AX700 , NX80 , AX100 etc and perform MANUAL WB BEFORE EVERY SHOOT. This neutralizes the red color and gives accurate colors underwater.
