My wife is finally getting the Photog bug, and she brought me a printout this morning from B&H's website with this Oly setup that she wants.
She seems pretty set on it, but the total is about 5 bills from B&H for the Cam and Housing. I guess the cam itself is only waterproof to 33 feet, which is still cool for snorkeling.
I'm curious if anyone has any experience with this camera. Also, if anyone knows the capability of adding a strobe to the Oly housing for this camera. Of course, she will want a strobe next, it seems inevitable at this point.
I like the size of the 1030 for her. It's nice and small, even in the housing. Shes still working on skills and I don't want her carrying around some huge setup. She also looked at the SeaLife Reefmaster Mini, but I'm positive that this Oly will take better pictures.
(FWIW - I tried to discuss the need for her to continue to work on skills before she adds a camera, but she said, and I quote - "But you bought one after 10 dives." Andddd.... that pretty much ended that. Do as I say, not as I do? Hehe.)
