In any case if I can't get hold of an Ikelite housing for this trip.. is anyone going to sell off their Ikelite C-5050 housing?

Re: Anyone here using Ikelite C-5050 Housing?
Well camera is settled for this trip. Have a friend lending me his C7070 with housing and D180 setup. I guess that will suffice. Maybe just bring another strobe along to play around with backlightings or something. hahaha.. Or get someone to hold the strobe on slave. Let's see how wide angle shots turn out. wahahaha...
Alternatively to waiting now for news from Ikelite on the status of the cracked housing and if it is able to be fixed and cost of fixing it, I might a) consider getting a backup housing same model or b) jump into investing getting the E-500 Olympus with the 50MM F2.0 Macro lens with Ikelite housing. I guess using the standard kit lens will have to suffice for wide angle shots for now. What say you guys? |
