Comments about Ikelite W-20 Underwater Wide Angle Conversion Lens w/ 46mm Thread:
I am a novice diver taking pictures underwater for the first time.
I used a nikon coolpix S550 with a housing and strobe by Ikelite.
This wide lens allowed me to get really close to the subject. That was very important since the environment was very dark and silty.
I love the fact it is heavy because it compensates for the positive buoyancy of the camera housing and strobe
