Nauticam EMWL Objective Lens - 87221, 87222, 87223, 87226
- Free NZ shipping over $250
There are four objective lenses designed to give four unique perspectives.
There are four different versions with varying degrees of angle-of-view. You would choose one based on the look, subject or type of image you would like to produce. These, like the other two parts, can all be put together and disassembled underwater. You could keep all four objective lenses with you and swap out when needed. You can shoot these just like you would any other lens, but the real magic happens when you get up close to your subject.
The 160°, 130° and 100° objective lenses will focus as close as the front element and the 60° objective lens can focus as close as 15mm. You could fill up most of the frame with a nudibranch and still have room for a diver in the background! The EMWL is a great tool to boost your creativity.
60° Objective Lens 87221
For a narrower angle-of-view or if you would like the background elements to look more compressed, than the 60° objective lens is the perfect choice. It is designed with 9 elements in 6 groups. There are three focusing ranges that can be set on the lens, ∞-55mm, 55-25mm and 25-15mm. I would suggest setting it to the ∞-55mm setting and adjust to one of the closer settings when working extremely close to a subject. The closer setting work similar to an extension tube by moving the lens further away from the sensor.
100° Objective Lens 87222
This is an extremely versatile angle of view. It is the smallest and sleekest in physical size making it a good choice for timid subjects and tight spaces. It is designed with 9 elements in 6 groups. An angle of view of 100° is still a lot of background space for small macro subjects or to shoot wide angle with. A 16mm lens on FF is 107° for comparison.
130° Objective Lens 87223
This ultra wide Objective Lens is designed with 9 elements in 7 groups. The image quality rivals the best wide angle lenses so feel free to shoot it for traditional wide angle shots or macro subjects with background elements.
160° Objective Lens 87226
This is the widest of the four Objective Lenses. It is perfect for larger macro subjects or any image where you want to see more of the background. The small front element offers many creative opportunities.

How long will it take for my order to arrive after I make payment?
That depends on where you live and whether we have an item in stock or not. While we do have many items in stock, we don't carry everything. (For example, we do not stock most housings or ports as there are just too many!) If you need an item in a hurry, it's a good idea to contact us and find out if your item is in stock, or if we can get it in a hurry - we often can!
If we have it in stock, we can usually send it out as soon as we receive payment (1-3 business days), or you can pick it up. If an item is not in stock, we'll need to order it from our suppliers, which means it can take 1-2 weeks to arrive at your door (usually closer to a week).
Sometimes delivery can take longer, if our manufacturers are out of stock, for example, but this is unusual - we let customers know as soon as possible if something like this happens.
