Zusammenfassung:A camera system includes a camera and an underwater housing. The underwater housing, when submerged underwater, causes refraction of light entering the camera, thereby affecting focus. The camera includes a lens assembly adjustable between a first secured position at a first distance from an image sensor to enable the camera to capture images that are in focus when the camera is outside of water. The lens assembly is adjustable to a second secured position at a second distance from the image sensor to enable the camera to capture images that are in focus when the camera operates within the underwater housing and submerged under water.
