USED:AOI UWL-09 Wide Angle Lens

Condition: Good Condition (With Cosmetic Imperfection - Does Not Affect Image Quality)

The AOI UWL-09 Lens is a great choice for most compact and mirrorless systems.  It offers 130 degrees field of view and 67mm mounting type.

This lens features full zoom through, allowing you to shoot at any focal length on your camera. This gives much more flexibility than many other wet wide angle lenses which are limited to just the wide end. Shoot both wide and portrait style photos without removing the lens underwater!

In addition the AOI UWL-09 ships with two adapter options. The A adapter comes installed on the housing, and will work with any 67mm threaded camera. Choose the optional B adapter in stead if you have a housing that allows the lens to sit closer to the front of the port (ie the threads are deeper or set up away from the port glass).

Adapter Recommendations by Housing Brand:

Adapter A:

• Nauticam
• Fantasea w/ 67mm Threads - RX100 III / IV / V & G7X Mark II
• Recsea Aluminum*

Adapter B:

• Ikelite
• Recsea CW
• Recsea Aluminum*

* The Recsea Aluminum housings can accept the B Adapter, which does provide slightly less vignetting on the G7X Mark II - meaning you can get a tiny bit wider than 130°. However this adapter will only screw onto the housing about 3/4ths of a turn, so it may not be as secure as the A adapter which attaches with several full rotations. Use at your own risk!
