Well I personally think that's a very very good deal, but i'd wait until our antichrist Mike Veitch ways in on this..
Do you plan on housing it, or is this just for topside usage?
Is Mike Veitch the Antichrist...

Kim, that is an excellent deal. Like Larry says that camera flatters the photographer. Have you seen my pics with that camera?

Maybe a little Jam but it is true that it is a very good camera and is easy to use. Good thing in my case...
I'm just curious at this stage. Housing it costs an awful lost (around 150% more than the original cost). Also I don't know if there's a port for the 60-300mm lens. I have my Oly 5050 so I'm not in a real hurry as I know I still have a lot to learn with that already. Presumably though prices will continue to drop so I might start a DSLR savings fund soon! eyebrowJamdiver:

Woah, Larry what happened to the monster Oly 8080? Don't tell me it leaked at the port connection (That Oly 8080 housing just looks dodgy imho... )
BTW, took my canon pos housing down to 55m last week while doing some tech wreck dives in the South China Sea... All the guys on the boat were laughing at me for even trying to bring it down (told them I wanted to flood my camera so I could get a new DSLR or HDV video camera... Well, sadly the camera/ housing survived the depth but the buttons occaisionally acted funny due to the pressure. Unfortunately the viz was low and I didn't bring a wide angle lens for some good pics of the HMS repulse...
