I will only be operating just a few feet underwater in a pool. Very controlled environment.

I don't have a housing for the D200 - sorry. I have a housing for the 5D and 1DsII if you can beg/borrow/steal one of those cameras.

Cheers
James

Hi Raymond,

Now that I've slept, (just got home from Little Cayman last night) I read that you're looking for a rental setup. If you're willing to use a slightly better camera than the D200 for your shoot (:-) I'll do a complete rental for a 5D housing w/ strobes, slave strobes, etc.

Cheers
James

I'd be interested in that for a dive I have planned in late June / Early July -

Daylon,

I hadn't considered renting out my stuff for a dive trip, but local use in Houston pools would be OK on my "comfort meter."

Cheers

I think his camera flooded when he decided to go with the zip-loc sandwich bag approach.
