Weights for Canon underwater housing (WP-DC16) in Bangkok

3 posts
  1. Hi all,

     

    Just bought an Canon A720IS and a WP-DC16 underwater housing in Bangkok (Pantip plaza)

    Got a nice deal € 235 (US$ 360) for this set but i couldn't buy the optional weights here.

    Actually i couldn't buy them anywhere in the big center's so who of you knows where i can buy these weights.

    Leaving for Koh Tao on Tuesday and i like to use the camera "normally"

     

    Thank you !!

  2. Just a personal opinion... Don't waste the money. Your camera and housing will probably/possibly/might be a little positive which is a good thing. When and if you add other pieces (tray, arm, strobe) the weights will be useless. You'll probably then be looking for a way to add lift to the set-up.

  3. Yes i think you are right Jeff! My friend (and fellow diver) told me the same thing tonight.

    I never used a Canon setup underwater so when i reviewed the "user manual" i came across the weights

    and that is what made me start my "quest" for them.

     

    Thanks for your answer Jeff !
