Where to rent underwater housing ?

[eagleray]

Anyone has any idea if there are any shops or individuals who rent out underwater housing ?
I am looking for one for the Lumix GF-1

I think Scubacam has rental unit but it's not cheap to rent it. You can contact or visit them in Short street Goden Wall center.
The risk is quite big as well once flodded camera and lens gone, housing TTL circuitry also bonkers upon flooding, potential high bill.

agreed... thats why still considering.... :bsmilie:

my buddy will get find a set. so yah. i think 1 camera for diving will suffice... hahaha. :bsmilie:

Rented housing must water test befire you dive as if flooded, you have to replace with new camera.

Well ... the risk is the same even if we own the casing ... once flood your own camera and lens are also gone :> touch wood

Was hoping that someone has a personal set for the GF-1 housing ...and willing to rent it out ... i got my own cam :>
