Product description
Discover the precision and versatility of the Ikelite 5510.35 Modular Flat Port Assembly, a professional-grade tool designed for the discerning underwater photographer. Crafted from durable materials, this high-quality flat port assembly is engineered to enhance your underwater portrait and macro photography experience.With its ability to reduce the angle-of-coverage due to refraction, the 5510.35 Modular Flat Port Assembly magnifies your subject, making it ideal for capturing intricate details of small marine life with standard, macro, or zoom lenses. This feature is particularly beneficial for photographers aiming to achieve stunning, close-up shots with clarity and depth.It's important to note that while this flat port can accommodate the full length of a 1:1 macro lens, there may be vignetting at infinity focus due to the inherent characteristics of flat ports. However, the reliable performance of this Ikelite product ensures that your images remain sharp and clear, with the forgiving optics of the flat port compensating for any potential vignette effects.Please be aware that the port body is not included with this assembly. To attach the Modular Flat Port Assembly to your housing, an appropriate Port Body is necessary. Ikelite offers a selection of Port Bodies in various lengths to match different lenses, ensuring a seamless integration with your existing equipment.For optimal image sharpness, especially when using dome ports underwater, the choice of port body length is crucial. In contrast, the 5510.35 Modular Flat Port Assembly's optics are less sensitive to port length, providing you with more flexibility in your underwater photography setup.For those utilizing popular wide-angle lenses, the #5510.16 and #5510.22 Port Bodies are commonly recommended. These bodies also accept port extensions, allowing for the accommodation of longer macro and zoom lenses, thus enhancing the versatility of your underwater photography kit.Choose the Ikelite 5510.35 Modular Flat Port Assembly for a reliable, professional, and high-quality addition to your underwater photography gear, backed by the trusted reputation of Ikelite and the positive experiences of photographers around the world.
