In 2007, SeaLife developed the first non-housing digital underwater camera, and in 2013 SeaLife introduced the Sea Dragon underwater lighting system and its innovative Flex-Connect tray, grip, arm, and mounting accessories. In 2000, SeaLife developed the world’s first digital underwater camera. SeaLife Underwater Cameras are designed and created by Pioneer Research in Moorestown, NJ and were first introduced in 1993.

SL052 Ultra Wide Angle Lens for Micro Series $349.95 The rotatable light shade prevents unwanted glare from external lighting or sunlight, as well as protect the dome lens from bumps and abrasion.Īvailability for the new conversion lens is expected for January 2022 with pricing as follows:

The inner airspace is back-filled with nitrogen to prevent fogging in extreme temperature conditions. A lanyard is included to prevent loss underwater and the lens can dock on SeaLife’s “Lens Caddy” when not in use. The SeaLife Dome Lens weighs 11.7 ounces (331 grams) and is negatively buoyant. A locking ring prevents the lens from accidently detaching when bumped or in rougher water conditions. The new lens is a “wet lens” and easily attaches and removes underwater. The lens fits all SeaLife Micro-series cameras (Micro HD, HD+, Micro 2.0, Micro 3.0) and also works with the SeaLife ReefMaster RM-4K increasing the tiny camera’s shooting angle to a massive 196°. The lens has a 13.3mm film-equivalent effective focal length when used with the SeaLife Micro 3.0 and is waterproof to 200ft/60m. “This is a breakthrough for Micro-Series camera users, as the lens significantly improves the camera’s image sharpness” says Bjorn Harms, SeaLife’s Vice President of Product Development. The dome lens is optical polycarbonate with hard, anti-scratch coating. The internal elements are fully multi-coated optical glass. The wide angle dome lens design uses high-grade optics arranged in a 4- element/4- group array that delivers crisp edge-to-edge sharpness. SeaLife, the leading maker of underwater imaging gear, introduced a new ultra wide angle dome lens for the Micro-series and ReefMaster underwater cameras that increases the camera’s field-of view by almost 50% and allowing photographers to get three times closer to the subject.
