Sony A100 + BS Kinetics

Anyone using a Sony A(lpha) 100 under water?

I have one, and am considering buying the BS Kinetics housing.

Curious for user experiences with that setup....

Haven't you considered Ikelite? It supports TTL and the housing looks fine:

I have no experience with BS Kinetics. For a while I thought it's a rebranded Bruder. It has some relation, but it's a new company with good housings (according to the BOOT report):

I'm doubting heavily at the moment

There's an Ikelite dealer very close to where I live

somewhere next week he will have the Ikelite housing in his store so I will drop by to try it.

big plus will be the flawless integration with my DS125 strobe

and it looks like it gives more control than the BS kinetics one

another plus is the price

drawback on the other hand is the 60m rating opposed to the 80m on the BS kinetics

I'll just have to be patient ......

Yes, the guys from BS Kinetics worked together with Bruder in the past. But that was in the past. Have only heard very positive things from BS Kinetics users so far.

Hi Voets,

Don't forget to post your impression about the ikelite housing.

How frequently do you take pictures under 60 m?

Cheers
