XD Lens Features

Quick attachment/detachment on land and underwater
INON's new bayonet mount "XD Mount" is easy to attach and detach by pressing the lock lever and turning the lens halfway. With the "XD Lens Holder", you can switch between wide and macro smoothly without storing a lens in BC pocket. You can comfortably shoot macro subjects and dynamic underwater scenery even in single dive. With the XD Mount, you don't have to worry about the lens anchoring due to salt build-up that can occur with screw type lens mount.
 
Assured image quality with latest optics
The wide conversion lens carries on the optical system of "UWL-95 C24" to provide same image quality without vignetting from wide end. Close-up lenses also carry the same optical system of existing lenses to improve usability while maintaining lens performance and magnification.
 
For more details on XD lens holders, please refer to the relevant news release.
