SeaLife 6"/15cm Wide Angle Dome Lens for SportDiver (SL053)
By SeaLife Cameras | Item: SL053 | Direct Press-Fit Mounting | 40% Increase in Field of View
Transform your underwater smartphone photography with the SeaLife 6"/15cm Wide Angle Dome Lens (SL053). Designed specifically for the SeaLife SportDiver and SportDiver ULTRA smartphone housings, this wet lens increases your smartphone camera’s underwater shooting angle by 40%, allowing you to get up to two times closer to your subject while fitting expansive reefscapes, marine life, and wrecks into your photo frame.
Featuring precision 2-element / 2-group optical acrylic lens construction, the 0.71x dome corrects barrel distortion and restores crisp edge-to-edge sharpness. The large 6-inch dome port design makes capturing stunning **half-above / half-below water split shots** effortless. It mounts directly onto the SportDiver housing lens port via a press-fit seal—requiring zero threaded adapters, tools, or special adjustments.
Direct Press-Fit Mounting & Easy Over/Under Split Shots
The SL053 wet lens easily attaches and detaches underwater or topside directly to the SportDiver housing port without extra adapter brackets. Its air-filled optical dome naturally pushes the waterline down across the 6-inch element, making professional half-submerged split images easy for beginner and experienced photographers alike.
