I am looking to upgrade from my MMII EX (Seamaster Pro) to a digital camera. I will also use the camera topside, but I figure anything I use underwater will be good enough for the rest of the time also. In addition to the MMIIEX, I have a Canon Elan II and a housed Rebel G that I bough used on Ebay and have not taken underwater. I also have 2 non-digital strobes that I would like to use with the camera, but they are not set up to preflash and require bulkhead connections for TTL control.
The most obvious choce in a camera to me is the Canon D10, but I am afraid that the effective lens multiplier will eventually make me want to upgrade to a full frame sensor if they ever come out, rendering the D10 a very expensive middle step.
So... Is there a prosumer digital camera in the 4 to 5 mp range with minimal shutter lag that will control my existing TTL strobes. I don't want to spend the money on new strobes and a new camera and housing, and If I can't get the strobes to work right, I might as well stay with the toys that I have. With my currect set-up I do like to shoot both macro and wide angle on the same dive, and if I can reuse my Sea & Sea lenses, that would be a real plus.
