HELP! Need Oly5050z Housing ASAP!

[Gypsydiver]

Last minute trip to Hawaii on the third week of July & I can't seem to find housing for my Oly. Can anyone recommend an online store that still sells it? Also, if anyone knows of insurance for the camera I can use (I don't really own any other gear).

Any help appreciated. Thanks!

try B&H Photo or Adorama or Marine Camera Dist.

As the 5050 has been out of production for a while, you will probably have a difficult time finding the housing in stock. Perhaps ebay. Good luck.

I have an Oly housing I might be persuaded to part with... send me a PM and we can work out the details.

I think I saw them today on the Olympus web site in their "Emporium" Around $300, so certainley not a bargain!

3 in Ebay at:
http://search.ebay.com/olympus-5050-housing_Cameras-Photo_W0QQfkrZ1QQfromZR8QQsacatZ625

If you like the Ikelite, wich is Part #: 613055, you ´ll pour about us$500 at Adorama or B and H Photo in NY.

As someone said before, at Olympus emporium ant Oly outlet in Amazon ( http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/B00008XEYO/104-4092061-6293531?SubscriptionId=1VCPVTBZ200DP83H5Z02 ) you pay $499 for the Olympus PT-015.

A cheaper possibility is the Ewa Marine, wich goes for about US$190... but dont even look at it since it just goes to 33ft as far as I remember....

Thank you all for your help & replies! (I love scubaboard!)
I certainly have some research to do tonight. I was hoping to get it brand new, but wow those prices. But just in case I can't ... I may take you up on your offer Sapphire. If you can, could you possibly PM me your price? I would like to avoid eBay as much as possible.
Thanks again for all of your help!
