D80 Housing Rental in the UK?

Hi,

I'm planning to go to Cebu in the Philippines in March. I think I'm about ready to switch from my trusty Olympus 5050s to my D80 for underwater duties. However I can't really afford to house the D80 so was wondering about renting a housing. All my searches here and in google find options for renting in the US but not the UK.

Does anybody in the UK rent housings?

Cheers

I am also off to Cebu in March!!

Meanwhile, have you tried Alan James Photography as I believe he rents some Sea & Sea housings? He is Bristol based and I think his website is "marine cameras"

Hope that helps

Cheers

Chris

Thanks Chris. It's more expensive than I thought - I can get an Ikelite housing for the cost of two weeks hire ! Ho hum - maybe my 5050s will remain in use for another holiday....

It is worth it though!

I also started on olympus 5060/ikelite...I'd never go back!

Have fun in Cebu!
