Sony Cybershot HX30V & Ikelite 6115.20

[scubadoNC]

I have the Sony Cybershot HX30V and was thinking to purchase the Ikelite 6115.20. However, there are little to no reviews on the underwater housing. Almost thinking to purchase the Canon ELPH 300 with the Canon WP-DC41. The Canon and housing are less than the Ikelite, but would rather tote around one camera. Also the SeaLife SL332 is less than the housing or the canon and housing together, but again lacking reviews.

Any words of wisdom??

Thanks!!!

Hi there. This camera is a 20x zoom and therefore not very popular underwater for the difficulty of attaching wet lenses. The only thing you can do is to buy a dome this will allow you to use the full zoom of the camera in water. This could be an excellent solution for video but not that good for pictures.
The canon you mention has options for wet lenses with the ikelite housing and would be more suitable for photos.
