Hi ScubaBoard,
I own a Canon Digital Rebel and see there are UW housings for it for around $1000. I assume I would have to add strobes to it? Or would the built-in flash be usable?
Anyway, I think I'm looking for a cheaper and smaller solution (easier to travel with). I'm thinking of the Casio Exilim EX-Z40 with its EWC-40 UW housing. The cost would look to be around $600.
Questions:
1. Is the tradeoff between size and quality between my Rebel and the Exilim worth it? Opinions?
2. How does the flash of the Exilim perform? Any experience? There's a flash diffuser sold with the enclosure. Does it help?
3. Other recommended equipment for <$1000 for a beginner UW photographer? Other questions I should ask myself to narrow down the choices?
Cheers,
Arno.
