  • After using a small action camera for my videos, I realized I needed a camera with large monitor, so I decided to buy the Olympus TG-5. Then I needed an underwater housing, good for up to 200 feet deep, and a Corrective Dome Port. Video footage included here shows the benefits and advantages of this gear.

      Thinking of up grading to a TG-6,I think it will fit the Sea Frog housing.

    Perfect timing on this video, I'm just looking to buy a housing for my TG-5 and start doing better uw photography than just my GoPro... I've been waffling between this and the Olympus housing. You helped me make the decision. Appreciate you posting this.

      There are things to no about using Sea Frog housing next video, big difference from the action camera,one thing I did not was battery power the X-2 battery is short on time ,I get two dives with the TG-5.

    Did anyone else catch when he said, “you can go from wide angle, close up, magnification...401K” lol, that was funny 😂

    • @lonenightdiver6041
      @lonenightdiver6041  4 роки тому

      No must have been a mistake

    • @blaquaman1739
      @blaquaman1739 4 роки тому

      lonenightdiver I took it as the camera has so many functions it also comes with a 401k. Sorta like this camera can do everything:-)

      Another reasons for a TG-5, I made a mistake my Sea Frog Housing got a leak! with a $1000 plus top side camera and lens game over!

  • @vie-vie

    Thanks for sharing lonenightdiver! Got the Sea Frog case and dome after watching your video. Struggeling with the inner o-ring. After cleaning it's hard to get it back in place. Any tips on that?

  • @josemiguels7688
    @josemiguels7688 Рік тому

    how are you finding the dome? Is it good after all this time? Does it leak? I´m looking for a housing for my tg6 and seafrog is the cheapest option

  • @johnmarshall6926
    @johnmarshall6926 4 роки тому

    Very informative. One question, maybe two. Do you have any issues when you swap out the dome port. Also, do you get air bubble between the port housing and camera housing?

    • @lonenightdiver6041
      @lonenightdiver6041  4 роки тому

      Yes the deeper the harder to remove dome ,yes flush out the air with movement or fingers..

  • @marcenessai4415
    @marcenessai4415 5 років тому

    Nice information. The window of this underwater housing seems smaller than the screen of the TG5. Is this true? is it annoying to take pictures?

    • @lonenightdiver6041
      @lonenightdiver6041  4 роки тому

      Yes it is.but it is a lot bigger the Connex camera, I was using.

    hi. was hoping if u can share some thoughts on the seafrog domes. m67-01 and m67-02... theres very little information around...

    • @lonenightdiver6041
      @lonenightdiver6041  2 роки тому

      In 1966 had to do all the math, etc. do not know what my dome is, but it works, did a lot of questing and thinking how the correction ,was it fill air or water before buying the unit ,all I know it works.

  • @kittykatj10

    Is there a thread on the dome port? How does it actually fit into the dive housing?

    • @lonenightdiver6041
      @lonenightdiver6041  3 роки тому

      Yes they are very fine threads. I always remove dome wash out air, start of dive.
