Just recieved an A-75 as a gift. Have done alot of U/W photo with Nikon N-90s and Ikelite housing, but this digital thing is all new. Are the Canon housings good? Do they have enough controls? Whats the best way to get an external flash to work with them....I have an Ai from Ikelite. Can I set it up to do exposure comp? I do both Macro and Wide angle. Is there room in the Canon housing for add on lenses ie. diopters/ wide angle lenses?
Heeeeeeelp Thanks in advance!!!!
 
I have that camera. I love it. The housing is inexpensive and gives you every function available on the camera (well, except the print button ;)) Can't help you too much with the other questions.. strobes cost more than I paid for the camera. FWIW the camera takes great macro shots by itself.
 
I love the Canon housings - have two.

Contact Yuzo for what add-on lenses will work with that particular housing. I am pretty sure INON makes a range that does.

Contact Ike for questions about your current strobe or simply test it yourself. I was told by various ppl that my Ike 50 strobe with slave would not work, but it did just fine. I would think you will need the slave controller, though.

The Canon housings give you control over all the functions of your camera. For best results, know how the buttons work and which combinations you need to push to make things happen. You can do this even before you get your housing.

Have fun!!
