    I’m in the midst of deciding on how I should add wide-angle capability to my TG6/7, currently with the Olympus housing. Your comments regarding the Backscatter wide angle lens are very helpful. It has an attractive price and features, but the difficulties regarding scratching of the dome are concerning. I’m curious as to the attachment system you used and your impressions. I believe Backscatter offers a bayonet mount adapter and an o-ring seal system to allow you to avoid having to “burp” the lens underwater. Any thoughts or advice would be very helpful. Thanks!
