I have a Canon EOS 10D (digital SLR) and I'm looking to get a housing soon
I have a 28-300mm lens and I'm probably going to get a wide angle lens too like maybe a 15mm or a 15-35mm zoom
I looked around at a few sites and see all these extra accessories they sell for housings and now have a billion questions.

- Do all housings come with a lens port? I've seen some that look as if the lens port isn't included
- Can I get by with 1 port with the lenses I have or would it be better to have a different size port for each lens? Either way what size port(s) would you recommend?
- Do all ports give you the ability to zoom, I saw a part on one site called a zooming ring, I assume that's what it's for, just thought it would be standard
- What brand housings would you recommend?
- Do the warrantees on the housings also cover the camera in case of flooding, or do I really need that DAN equipment insurance?
- Is it possible to get it as a kit with ports, zooming ring, etc.
- Is there anything I left out or I'm missing since I don't know much about housings?

I'm not a pro just a severe photo geek. Sorry for asking so many questions, but I don't trust camera stores. They'll always try to sell you accessories that you don't need, or at least not unless you're a pro photographer.
