hey everyone
recently i had made plans to go dslr with a nikon d70. i understood that i was going to pay a pretty penny for my setup. d70, ikelite housing, ds 125, ports, lenses, etc. but recently new concerns came up that i did not realize in the past. i kind of got a little discouraged after looking at about 4k to spend, i have the money but is it really worth it? i dive maybe 50-100 times a year and it is all primarily travel. a dslr fully equipped will be a nightmare when it comes to traveling. so i have changed my decision. i am thinking of going with the olympus 8080 w/ ikelite and ds 125. the questions i have is would the ds 125 strobe go well with this olympus setup. i will save so much money with this setup and i have seem some pics and i am very, very pleased. the resolution is great. anyway any concerns about this decision, any added info, maybe better cameras than the 8080 that i am not aware of, anything, please shoot it at me. i would like to start purchasing gear immediately. thanks so much everyone.
