    Fantasea Housing leak

    I am not sure how I feel about using an adhesive on a housing. The housing has already been compromised, but I would definitely depth test it sometime without the camera in the housing. I would use 2 part epoxy, 5 or 30 min set time should do. Follow the instructions on the package and make...

    Magic Filter with Nikkor 18-55mm

    Hey Everyone- I have a dive trip coming up in a month or two, and I also have a new magic filter to try on my D80 (with a Nikkor 18-55mm, 52mm filter mount) My question is this: Should I put the magic filter on the outside (front) of the lens? Or should I tape it to the smaller back (inside)...

    Scuba/Snorkeling in Water Games?

    Hey All I teach a snorkeling class at a summer camp for kids near my house. The class runs for about an hour a day for 5 to 6 days with kids 8-12 years old. Normally the first day I go over things like equipment (mask, snorkels, vests, fins, etc.) and basic skills (water entry, walking in fins...

    Does anyone have a D40X with housing?

    Hey I don't have a D40x but I thought I would mention another housing option for your consideration. I am assuming you have some form of a budget; Ikelite has some nice housings but if you are looking to save some $ on a housing and put it toward a WA lens or strobe, try looking at the Fantasea...

    New to DSLR

    Don't bother with the D40x. It won't have the "legs" you want for such a significant purchase. I use a D80 in a Fantasea housing which works well for me and my budget. With the D300 just released you might be able to get a used D200 setup, which a lot of people both use and love for underwater...

    Would you buy a Fantasea housing for your Nikon DSLR?

    Mine does not, unless you modified the zoom ring and attached it to the focus ring. Most focus rings are smaller than the zoom rings too, so it is harder to make attachment for them. Particularly on the 18-55mm Nikkor...

    Anyone have opinions about "Its A Dive" Key Largo FL

    I also would recommend It's A Dive. Customer service was excellent, dive site choice was very good. The 2 tank Speigel Trips are amazing and they seem to be one of the few operators in the keys that do that.

    A Review: Fantasea Housing for Nikon D80

    Hey All- I have had a hard time finding a review of a Fantasea Housing, so since I have a housing, I wrote one up. See thread link below. http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/3495154-post22.html Check it out. I think I could probably say the same for Fantasea housing for a Canon DSLR. Note: This...

    Would you buy a Fantasea housing for your Nikon DSLR?

    Interesting...What kind of issues? I had not heard about this... I had noticed that the steel latches on the rear of my housing developed some rust, after only a week in Bonaire and proper post dive rinsing. (?) Also, some nice pics in your gallery! Bonaire is great isn't it? :D Gordon
