(*7) 28AD mount series attachment lens lineup consists 「UWL-100 28AD」wide conversion lens to shoot wider area and its super wide option 「Dome Lens Unit for UWL-100」. 『AD Mount series』「UCL-165AD」 close-up lens to shorten minimum shooting distance, is also usable.(*8) INON supports to shoot all different type of subject from 『semi fish-eye』 to 『ultra macro』 with simple and reliable system. (*7) 『UWL-100 28AD Wide Conversion Lens』 is not usable for 『μTOUGH-6000』/「PT-047」due to significant misalignment between camera's master lens and lens port of the underwater housing. Only 『UCL-165AD Close-up Lens』(*8) is usable. (*8) Usable underwater and zoom middle range towards to telephoto side on land. Zoom wide side is not usable due to significant vignetting on either side of an image caused by misalignment between optical axis of 『μTOUGH-6000』 and lens port axis of 「PT-047」. ■　Compatible Strobe System　■ Digital camera compatible 『“S-TTL” Auto』 strobe INON 「S-2000」/「Z-240」/「D-2000」 is usable. 【“S-TTL” auto】 of 「S-2000」/「Z-240」「D-2000」series gives you correct and reliable exposure by simply pressing shutter release button. There are two choices for strobe arm; 「Shoe Base Set」 which directly holds compatible strobe on the hot shoe of underwater housing providing compact external strobe set-up, or universal type 「Grip Base D4 Set」widely supports more than 80 underwater housings with loose-proof structure, depending on your shooting style. When using 「Grip Base D4」, it is easy to expand to dual strobe configuration with optional 「D Holder」, 「Z Joint」 and 「Optical D Cable Type L」. Off course wide variety of INON「Arm II System」 is usable to support simple and reliable highly accurate "S-TTL" Auto imaging with intended lighting effect depending on a subject/shooting condition. ■　Why so many different Mount Bases / Optical D Cable Sets　■ As same as other INON Mount Bases and Optical D Cable Cap Sets, 「28AD Mount Base・PT-045/047」/「Optical D Cable・ Cap W48 Set Type L」 is exclusively designed for specific camera/housing including careful compatibility test to; ・Optimize high quality lens performance for high quality macro/wide shot and 　(design attachment lens layout for best suited distance from camera’s master lens which is vary among different camera/housing models) ・Support highly accurate and reliable “S-TTL Auto” shooting. 　(design fiber optics attachment layout based on camera’s built-in flash location) INON benefits you with above advantages by producing specific accessories for each specific camera/housing model. Other manufacture’s versatile lens adopters or universal strobe cables look like very useful but they often show; ・Just enough to attach a lens →without optimizing optical performance of lens resulting only widen an image area with heavy vignetting on corners 　or terrible quality in peripheral part of an image ・Just enough to attach a strobe →without accurate exposure control and reliability resulting fluctuating exposure and fickle flashing INON system is completely different from those versatile products and simple yet reliable to provide “high quality image”/”highly accurate S-TTL Auto” to support every level of underwater photographers. ■　Relative information ■ ・「Underwater “S-TTL” Auto strobe 『S-2000』」　http://www.inon.co.jp/cgis/news/En_html/WebNews205_En.htm ・「Underwater “S-TTL” Auto strobe 『D-2000』」　http://www.inon.co.jp/cgis/news/En_html/WebNews226_En.htm ・「Underwater “S-TTL” Auto strobe 『Z-240』」　http://www.inon.co.jp/cgis/news/En_html/WebNews226_En.htm ・「S-2000」 wireless connection compatibility chart (PDF:49.5KB) 　http://www.inon.co.jp/product/strobe/WirelessConnection_En.pdf ・「Grip Base D4」　http://www.inon.co.jp/cgis/news/En_html/WebNews212_En.htm ・「Grip Base D4」compatibility chart (PDF:30.0KB) 　http://www.inon.co.jp/product/arms/GripBaseCompatible_En.pdf ・「Shoe Base Set」　http://www.inon.co.jp/cgis/news/En_html/WebNews191_En.htm ・「Shoe Base」compatibility chart (PDF:35.9KB) 　http://www.inon.co.jp/product/arms/ShoeBaseCompatible_En.pdf ・「Optical D Cable・Rubber Bush Set Type L」・「Optical D Cable SS・Rubber Bush Set Type L」　http://www.inon.co.jp/cgis/news/En_html/WebNews223_En.htm April 20th, 2009 INON Inc.
