Backscatter Custom GoPro Underwater Housing with Glass lens
Our professional grade GoPro lens modification will allow you to capture unique land and underwater images.
The standard GoPro housing is blurry underwater.
We take the standard GoPro housing and hotrod it with our custom lens and filter mount.
Our custom glass lens is the only professional grade GoPro option with crisp underwater focus and no vignetting (corner shadows) in all 16:9 HD shooting modes.
Use creative filters (55mm) above and below water for special effects and exposure / color correction.
No funky glue, professionally installed, and pressure tested to 130 feet.
Unlock your creativity above and below the water with our filter options.

* Manufacturing variance in your GoPro Hero housing / camera / filter might cause shadowed corners. Hero camera is more forgiving than Hero 2 camera. Remove 55mm filter element from threaded ring and use o-ring mount if your filter ring is too thick and causes shadowed corners. Test your configuration before critical use.
** Final image must be cropped to 16:9 format to avoid shadowed corners
