	Unless I am misreading it the NIKONOS lenses are marked for
measured underwater distances. For example setting the lens at 4ft
is the same as 3 apparent feet underwater.
	It makes little difference since you will almost always use
a strobe and rely on the depth of field to be sure the subject is in
this depth of field range.
	My reference is "The Nikonos Book" by Jim and Cathy Church.
