Until June 2006 all pictures in the VisionDive
gallery were taken with the Nikon F80 camera in a Subal housing and the strobe
Subtronic Mega.
Since July 2006 all pictures are made with the Nikon D200 camera. For wideangle
shots the Nikon lenses DX Fisheye-Nikkor 10.5mm/2.8G, DX Zoom-Nikkor 12-24mm/4G
or AF Nikkor 20mm/2.8D are in use. For close-ups is the AF Nikkor 35mm/2.0D,
AF Micro-Nikkor 60mm/2.8D or the AF Micro-Nikkor 105mm/2.8D on the camera. By
using those lenses with the Nikon D200 note that the focal length will be extended
by the factor of 1.5.
The camera is placed in a Subal ND20 housing. All camera functions can be
handled from the housing. For the 10.5mm lens the domport DP-FE2 is used.
For the 12-24mm lens the domport DP-FE2 with the extension ring EXR-50 is
on the housing. For the 20mm and 35mm lens the domport DP-FE2 with a +2 diopter
adjustment lens is mounted (those two lenses can also be used with the domport
DP-SWB and a +4 diopter adjustment lens). For the 60mm lens the flatport FP-FC60
is on the housing and for the 105mm lens the flatport FP-FC60 with the extension
ring EXR-33.
The strobe is the Subtronic Nova dttl with external batteries. The battery
is integrated in the strobe arm and separated from the housing what gives
a much better buoyancy to the strobe.
