Canon 30D Housings

[PapaBob]

I have read some nice reviews of the new Canon 30D which is an upgrade of the 20D that I own. I am not going to trade in my 20D but if I was making the purchase today I would buy the 30D. The 30D seems to have an identical body configuration to the 20D. The enlarged screen seems to fit into the same area as the smaller 20D screen (which has a border predesigned to accomodate the large screen in the later model I think) and the button placement looks the same (except the new direct print button). So my question (Ike if you are listening) is will the 30D fit into UW housings for the 20D? Just curious.

Nope... Serious button movement on the back panel.

Never seen an upgrade of a camera without some button movements.

I think the size is close enough that it might fit. Might be able to get away with just a new back. Or maybe you don't need all those silly buttons anyway.
