Flip Adapters for Wet Lenses on Underwater Housings

A flip adapter attaches to the outside of an underwater housing and provides a hinged mount for wet lenses. This system allows rapid positioning of optics without removing the housing.

By rotating the frame, a wet lens can be placed directly in front of the port or moved aside. This adds flexibility for both macro and wide-angle imaging underwater.

Single and Double Flip Adapter Options

Flip adapters are available in single and double versions. A single mount carries one wet lens, while a double adapter accommodates two lenses for fast switching.

Single flip adapters hold one lens
Double flip adapters allow two lenses

Technical Considerations and Thread Sizes

Most flip adapters use M67 threaded mounts, ensuring compatibility with common wet lenses and ports. This standard allows direct attachment without complex modifications.

Correct installation is essential: the adapter must align securely with the housing port to maintain stability and optical accuracy during use.
