In Desperate Need Of Housing (olympus Pt-018)

[kclark6595]

HEEEEELLLLLPPPP !!! DIVER DOWN !!!!!!!

Going to Fiji for 10 days and I was looking to buy the housing I once had for my digital camera. It is an Olympus C-740UZ. The housing part number is PT-018. It is a dicontinued housing directly from Olympus. I already have owned one, but when troubles in the marriage put the nix on my diving, I sold the housing. I still have the strobe setup for it, so to avoid spending TONS of money again, I need to go back to the same housing.

What I am trying to find is if there is anyone NOT in the United States that would be willing to do a bit of searching in their home contries for the availability of this housing and letting me know. I dont care about languages the instructions are in, I downloaded that from Olympus.

Any help anyone can give would be GREATLY appreciatted.

Sincerely,

You can try this web site http://unterwasserkamera.at/. I know it's all in German, but I just bought the PT-018 from the owner, and used http://babelfish.altavista.com/ to translate the site as I completed the on-line order form. I found the site through http://www.digideep.com/. You can search for the PT-018, and they will display a list of retailers that most recently announced that they still have the housing. It's a hit and miss process, but better than nothing. Good luck.

If you are still looking for an underwater housing, here's a message from a company in France that has one or more housings left. I used babelfish to translate things on their web site and their e-mail [http://babelfish.altavista.com/]. Good Luck.

There's a NIB PT-018 on ebay right now, though it's in the US.

I sent him a PM about one on Ebay on May 1. He sent me back a PM saying that he won that auction, so I think he's in good shape!
