Underwater Housing for Fujifilm F200EXR

[furrykat]

Hi, just wondering if anyone knows which shops carry the underwater casing for the new F200EXR... think the casing model is WP FX200. I've checked out almost all the camera shops in funan and they all do not carry it. Any idea on the estimated price too? Thanks for any help or pointers =)

I am heading down to Fujifilm 'green building' tomorrow. Will find out about the underwater housing for you.

Normally it takes one month after the product launch and have to place order for it.

Not really, F200 got the same chasis as F100. & currently for what i know only F60fd in the F series doesnt have the water casing.

I don't think so.

The WP-FXF200 is 2 mm thicker than the WP-FXF200. The flash diffuser of the WP-FXF200 is white, not grayish white (WP-FXF100)

I actually have a much older PnS camera Nikon Coolpix S1 that can has been going diving with me for a long time ... its super basic and really i don get very much good shots with it...time to upgrade! looking at the functions and capabilities of the 200EXR i am very very eager to try it out under water SOON... what with the smart flash, the different settings and all =D.... going manado in apr/ may... if i buy now... it can breath a mths' worth of air before heading underwater with me!! woohooo...

honestly speaking, the most important will be knowing your camera and use it's potentials to the max. looking forward to your diving pics!

Fujifilm told me that they had already placed orders for the WP-FXF200 underwater housing and will be available in stores by April 2009. Quantity is limited, so have yours reserved from the camera store.
