The Oculus replacement flat lens has been designed for use with the original GoPro HERO HD or Hero 2 underwater case to correct blurry video quality as a result of the distortion of the standard supplied domed lens. Constructed of thick high grade laminated optical plastics, the Oculus lens is another affordable solution to enhance picture quality of GoPro HERO HD underwater footage. While the Oculus works best with R5 mode at 1080p it will work at lower resolutions but their wider FOV angles will catch the corners of the lens in the frame requiring cropping to be done with a video editing software.
The Oculus lens is an easy swap over that requires no modification to the housing and has been rigorously tested and rated to up to 70 meters / 230 feet for over 70 minutes with no leaks, lens deformation or picture degradation. Our stainless steel screws are also salt water proof. Our pictures show the Oculus lens being tested in a dive pressure chamber and comparison screen captures from the standard lens quality to the Oculus quality.
We recommend to 'pressure test' the case underwater with a practice dive without the camera in the case first, to make sure it is waterproof tight before use.
Includes:
1 x Oculus Flat Lens Cover
10 x stainless steel screws
1 x GoPro Lens Cap (fits both standard and oculus cases)
