Subsee Dual Hinge Adapter for Sea & Sea DX-50 Macro Port
The SubSee Dual Hinge Adapter for Sea & Sea DX-50 Macro Port (manufactured by ReefNet) is a specialized mounting accessory designed for underwater macro photography.
What It Is
It is a custom-fit flip adapter made to secure onto the Sea & Sea DX Macro Port 50. Equipped with two hinged arms (a dual flip mechanism), it allows underwater photographers to attach two wet lenses/diopters (such as +5 or +10 close-up magnification lenses) simultaneously to their camera port.
What It Does
- Quick Switching Underwater: Rather than screwing and unscrewing wet lenses on and off underwater—which is slow and risks dropping equipment—the flip hinge lets you swing a diopter into place in front of the macro port in seconds, or flip it away when not needed.
- Dual Lens Versatility: The dual-hinge configuration gives you three distinct shooting options on a single dive without changing setups:
- No diopters flipped down: Shoot standard macro with your housing’s native lens setup.
- One diopter flipped down: Engage a single magnification lens (e.g., +5) for moderate super-macro photography.
- Both diopters flipped down: Stacking both magnification lenses together yields extreme "super-macro" magnification.
- Custom Fit: Designed specifically to fit the exact diameter and shape of the Sea & Sea DX-50 Macro Port, ensuring a snug, precise alignement for optical clarity.
