In addition to improved underwater use the KNEKT GP7SSD6 Dome Port makes it possible to capture images both above and below the water simultaneously. These are often referred to as half and half, 50/50, over under or split-level pictures. Until now one would need to invest thousands of dollars in high-end camera equipment in order to create these images. Even with the best gear producing quality over under results would be a challenge due to the complexity of focus, exposure and depth of field management. The GP7SSD6 paired with the GoPro overcomes all of this. The simplicity of operation, nearly infinite depth of field, wide-angle lens and video/still image quality make the GoPro perfectly suited for this application. Just slide the GP7SSD6 Dome Port onto the GoPro Super Suit Housing and produce stunning imagery above, below and in-between.
The GP7SSD6 utilizes a semi-hemispherical acrylic dome that we have custom made just for KNEKT. This dome has been optically matched to work with the GoPro lens. The use of a semi-hemispherical dome eliminates the perpendicular angle between the backing plate and the dome. The benefits of this are the elimination of circular reflection and improved water sheeting while reducing the form factor and maintaining full front face surface area. By utilizing an interlocking two-piece design the dome is captured mechanically to create an O-ring compression seal, no glue or silicone is used anywhere. This design allows the dome to be fully disassembled for cleaning and service. If the acrylic is scratched or cracked it can be replaced. The GP7SSD6 works with the GoPro HERO7, HERO6 and HERO5 Super Suit Housing and does not require any special modifications or separate accessories. The GoPro is just as secure as always since the GP7SSD6 slips right onto the housing, it does not alter the depth rating of the GoPro housing. The GP7SSD6 provides access to all of the camera’s buttons while installed. There is also a custom machined waterline indicator on the backing plate to assist in getting the perfect over under shot.
The GP7SSD6 can be used as a stand-alone product, it does not require the use of a handle or trigger to function. The GP7SSD6 is compatible with the KNEKT FPSH Pole, KDT Dive Trigger, Pistol Trigger GPSSPGT and Trigger Pole KTP18SS Trigger Pole.
