Re: im tempted (u/w housing 4 1d2)

It's a joke because it IS a plastic bag.

You can only take it down about 30'- and that's not even a given. The whole thing collapses around your camera and becomes very difficult to use any of the controls. To try and get some extra depth out of them you can try to blow them up, like a balloon, and then take them down, but the bouyancy becomes a big problem. They are really only intended for thing like rafting and rain forrests.

The Ikelite housing would be your best, cheaper, bet.

Digital cameras are changing way to fast for me right now to eventhink of dropping that kind of coin on a camera system that I would want to upgrade in a few years anyhow.
