In my review of the Nauticam WWL-1 wet lens in UwP87 the only gripe I had was with the neoprene lens cover “I think a lens of this quality deserves better protection which a solid lens cover would provide.” In addition I pointed out that the lens was quite nose heavy and a buoyancy collar should really be an optional extra. True to their reputation as a listening manufacturer I was sent both recently and I have to say that they really complete this great lens package and make it much easier to handle underwater. To be honest there isn’t really much that can be said about a quality, solid lens cap which clicks into place very positively and is easy to remove and fit. You will need a chunky pocket to keep it in during the dive as I would suggest that it’s safer to take it with you and remove and refit it on the dive as the time most likely to suffer damage is when it is being handled prior…
