Underwater Photography reviews the Sea & Sea Motormarine MM-III
|
What else is new? Well, for starters, there’s now a 20mm lens built-in. The previous Motormarine had a 35mm, which is not the easiest lens for anyone to use so this is good news.
There is a new range of supplementary lens to further enhance your options. This includes two macro lenses, a 15mm wide angle, and a fish-eye.
Also new is a built-in target light. Handy for Autofocus (but this is not an AF camera).
