Canon G9 housing wide angle issue

2008-01-10T09:04:56+01:00

was wondering if anyone had anyluck with the canon G9 underwater - I am thinking of the wide angle issue in particular- the camera comes with a 35mm lens at the widest and needs a enormous wide angle attachment lens on the surface to give it a 28mm range - I like the functions and control on the camera and the picture quality is superb, I hear that sea and sea is coming out with a housing, but very expensive, the orginal canon housing has one of these oval shaped lens port that is difficult to fit any attachment lens on....

any info or suggestion ?

Underwater housing for Leica D-Lux 3

2008-05-01T16:03:08+01:00

Does anyone have any experience with the Epoque UHC-LD3 Housing for the Leica D-Lux 3 camera? I realize it is expensive and has some drawbacks, but I love the camera and do not wish to hastle with the size of SLR housings. I have compared shots taken on land with the D-Lux 3 and compared it to the Sea Life D500 camera and Canon Digital Rebel. The Leica shots are far superior to the DC500 camera and better than the Digital Rebel. I would greatly appreciate some feedback before I make this sizable investment. Thanks! Steve
