    It took a while to get the 4 inch dome for the 8mm fish eye lens so only got out with it on the weekend.

    The lens does focus very close and will focus on small critters like a nudibranch for instance, but like the Gopro lens , at 8 mm it pushes everything far way. You need to very very close to capture your subject without it being buried in the background. That is an issue for shy creatures. Any suggestions?
