Hi all, I've been doing a lot of reading on getting UW camera gear. I shoot with a T1i on land, so decided to get housing for that camera (vs the Sxx or Gxx route), since I'll use the lenses on land too.
The two cheapest housings I found are the Ikelite 6871.50 and the Nimar NI303D. The Nimar is cheaper but I'd be willing to pay a bit more if the Ikelite is viewed to be higher in quality. Either way I'll be looking to get port that fits the Tokina 10-17.
Strobes is a big factor here too. Is there a preference for Ikelite over Nimar strobes? I'd like to keep ETTL functions.
Thanks for any help or advice! I've been all over the place in my decision process but am narrowing it down...
