hi

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 ?

Hi.

Ikelite do a housing for the G9.  An option with this housing is to change to a short port, which allows the use of wide angle adapters without any major problems with vignetting etc.

There’s quite a few threads on this subject on the forums at http://www.wetpixel.com.  Just search for Canon G9 and they will pop up!
