Looking for a WP-DC8 diffusion plate

[Kryssa]

I bought the housing and love it but it didn't come with a diffusion plate!

Anyone have one to sell? Or know where I can get one at a decent price?

That sucks! Did you purchase the housing new? If so, you should contact Canon and get them to send you one. The company should send you one at no extra charge.

If you bought the housing secondhand, I'd consider doing a DIY job. There really isn't much to the diffuser at all. Ikelite uses a white, semi-transparent plastic. The Canon one has more of a "clear" quality to it. Dress shoe laces work very well for creating a leash from the diffuser card to housing. Just drill a hole in the card and then run the shoelace through the hole.

A couple of years ago I ordered replacement o-rings and some of the magic Canon silicone grease for my UW housing from the Canon Parts Order Desk (732-521-7230), which is open Mon-Fri 9am-7pm EST. You might want to give them a call. Perhaps they sell the part you need.

Never mind, I found it! It was hidden in the packaging! Thanks for the help, though
