Canon A610/620 housings

[CalDyver]

I'm planning to get a Canon A610 or A620 but have not found any housing sources in looking online. It appears that the Ikelite 6140.62 is the right one but it doesn't seem to be available.
Any suggestions?

Canon wp-dc90 is the available now. The ikelite will be coming in January. I've heard good things about the canon housing and will be ordering mine probably today!!

Also purchased WP-DC90 housing through hobby monster on Ebay...excellent service. Looking forward, however, to Ikelite's offering.

I got my canon housing, WP-DC 90 from Dell a couple of weeks ago. I didn't see it listed on their website, but the salesman offered it to me when I called

I'd like to see what ikelite offers also. I don't like taking 2 cameras on trips and I would really like to find out how WA shots look like on the a620.

I ordered the wp-dc90 from DigitalFotoClub.com. I received it in 3 days along with the A620. Great service, great prices. I will order from them again. If you want to buy the A620 at a bargain price read my reply here: http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?t=122189

If you don't plan on doing wide angle or macro, the Canon housing is very good. Due to the oblong lens port, it will be very difficult to attach conversion lenses to the Canon housing.

For a little more money, the Ikelite would be my recommendation.

I just got the Canon WP-DC90 housing for my A610 really cheap (159.89 + shipping) from 17th Street Photo in NY.

I only ordered it yesterday so I haven't actually gotten my gadget loving paws on it yet....

I looked into the possibility of an Ikelite housing..... unfortunately it doesn't exist yet. They have announced one is "coming soon" but there is no release date or price info. This is their announcement:
