Close-Up Inon UCL-G165 SD
The UCL-G165 SD lens is a so-called "wide close-up lens" specifically designed for GoPro cameras based on its optical characteristic supporting closer minimum focus distance underwater, enabling high magnification/close-up imaging. Compatible with GoPro Hero Carbonarm with optional adapter (not included).
An action camera is a camera with a deep focus that does not require focusing, but prevents the subject to focus at close range (in a radius of 60 cm in theory for the GoPro® camera) and therefore not usable for shooting underwater macro. Using a standard macro lens for a compact digital camera would not help the situation as it would create vignetting and a very low field Depth, avoiding a comfortable focus. The UCL-G165 SD lens is the so-called "wide close-up lens" specifically designed for action cameras based on their optical characteristics. The Depth of field (DoF) underwater will be 5 cm / 2.0 inches at 35 cm / 1.1 feet when using the GoPro® HERO6 Black lens that supports a minimum minimum focusing distance underneath. water to capture photos / clips.
