Nicely done

Oh how I wish I were getting into underwater photography now! Too many age related defects preventing me from scuba diving now. I used an Ikelite housing for my Canon SLR camera years ago and was happy with it but having to replace the roll of film on a rocking boat in between dives in "subdued" sunlight was a pain! I do have a nice library of photos from back then.

Thanks for watching! You're right there are a lot of great cameras to be excited about today... it makes it a LOT easier to get amazing photos.

Great insights. Looking for an underwater housing and use the Canon R6 mark ii.

I got my Ikelitehouse, yesterday, for my new R8 camera. Looking forward to try the rigg underwater! 😊👍🏻

[@ikelite]

Thanks @patrikhaltia2167 you're going to love it! We would love to see your photos when you get it in the water!

[@smile645]

Great comparison! Got the R8 as it was a very good deal at 1400 euros + 24-50 IS kit lens (normally 2000eu in the netherlands). The only thing I don't like is the lack of ibis. In your experience in shooting underwater video. If I were to stick to IS lenses, would I still be able to shoot steady video?

[@ikelite]

You can still shoot some decent video with an IS lens. Some additional tricks on footage that is less steady are to shoot 60fps and slow down or add some stabilization in editing. With a non-IS (non-Canon) lens it can be pretty bad.
