      Any smartphone that can be used with the Divevolk system can make use of this dome port for split shots.

    And wouldn't it be a solution for them to make an update to the dome with a larger window that takes all the lenses?

    • @badbob001

      They should make the cutout exactly the same size and shape as the camera window on the case, so it just slots in and will not shift around. The current configuration allows for the dome to shift around, especially due to the buoyancy of the dome when submerged, which can allow water to leak into the cutout area and completely ruin shots with fogging or pooling of water.

      For good optical performance the lens you use must be in the center of the dome lens. A larger opening would still not center all three lenses at the same time. And it would be harder to create a proper seal on a larger opening as opposed to a smaller one.

    In the space between the case and the dome, is it supposed to be air or water? When I leave it as air, condensation/fogging occurs in that area, obscuring the phone camera. Also, if water gets into the small rubber o-ring, when mounting, the ring is compressed and water squeezed out, which is probably the source of the moisture for the fogging.

    • @MatthiasLebo

      It can be either water or air. The fogging can be prevented by assembling the dome lens onto the housing in a dry environment, i.e. indoors. Don't put the dome lens onto the housing in humid conditions or while on the boat.
      But you can also fill the space with water to prevent condensation from happening. In this case I recommend to attach the dome lens while you have the housing and lens already in the water.
      Personally I would try to keep air in that space and be careful as to where you are when attaching the dome lens to the housing and making sure that there is absolutely no moisture on the glass element before mounting the lens onto it (also the back side of the dome lens should be completely dry).
      Hope this helps?

      @@MatthiasLebo Problem is that water is already in the o-ring and squeezes out when compressed onto the glass of the case. Had the dome exposed to an air conditioned room all night but the water is still trapped within the o-ring area. And this will continue to occur since isn't it recommended to rinse equipment in fresh water after usage in salt water? ANYWAY, my solution is to simply add dab some soapy water to that area before mounting the dome in a dry area. Used the same trick for my swimming goggles.
      As for attaching the dome while in the water... I hope no one tries that while floating on the ocean given how easy it would be to accidentally drop the end piece.

    Can you achieve the same effect with the wide-angle conversion lens and save the dome?

    • @MatthiasLebo
      @MatthiasLebo  Рік тому +1

      No, you want be able to do split shots with the wide angle conversion lens. First of all it’s too small and second it isn’t sealed so you’ll always end up with some water between the housing and the lens which will make a proper split shot impossible.

    Which one of the phone's camera is recommended to be used with the dome? The ultra-wide camera?

    • @MatthiasLebo
      @MatthiasLebo  Рік тому

      Yes, the widest lens your phones camera offers. 👍🏻

    what free third party app do you recommend for iphone?

    • @MatthiasLebo
      @MatthiasLebo  Рік тому

      If you already have a subscription for Lightroom, use that. Really good in my opinion. If you don’t, have a look at ProCamera.

    For me it’s IMPOSSIBLE to instal it. I have literally spent 1,5 h now just to try to Allison it with the lens of my IPhone 13 Pro Max and the lens just cannot be fixed!!

    • @badbob001
      @badbob001 Рік тому

      It is rather hard. What I do is angle it so one of the prong is in place and so I just need to focus pushing down the other prong. I can see the plastic bend a bit so not sure how durable it will be in the long run.

    • @TXUSTASBARAKA
      @TXUSTASBARAKA Рік тому

      And can't you get the same effect with the wide-angle dome they sell and save the Dome?

    Didn't you have problem with inside reflection? I use a shoot dome port for my action camera and I always have annoying reflections. Another problem is that in non-tropical environment the underwater part is too dark compared to the above water half of the picture.

    • @MatthiasLebo
      @MatthiasLebo  2 роки тому +1

      No, I didn't have any problems with unwanted reflections as long as I didn't shoot into the sun. Keep the sun behind you and you won't have any problems with this dome port. The issue with the underwater section being too dark I can relate to. Unfortunately such shots are best taken in tropical water with lots of sunlight. In any other conditions it will be difficult to get a good shot.

    Do you have the same problem of exposure with ultrawide video?
