(This dome has two types: glass and acrylic.)
The conversion lens is designed for cameras with a built-in lens as wide as 24mm (equivalent), such as the Olympus TG-6 or Sony RX100 V. As Inon demonstrates in the press release below, the Olympus case The PT-059 for the former has an M52 mount, while the Sony MPK-RX100A case for the latter has an M67 mount.
