Not sure if anyone uses the Live View feature of the 40D or 50D while underwater, but they are activated differently in the 2 cameras. With the 40D you push the "Set" button found in the middle of the wheel. With the 50D you push the "Print" button.
On the Ikelite housing for the 40D there is no button to activate the print button.
There's not on the Aquatica housing either. I can't imagine anyone going from a 40D to a 50D really being that worried about not having access to live view though!

The Ikelite 50D replacement for 40D claimed to be the upgraded version but still does not cover the Multi-controller button...? I have no experience with the 40D early, Mine was the 50D but I encounter playback view after the shot, how you guys check the LCD which is only zoom at 1 single point, can't be adjust to any other area to actually viem on the photo....
Or maybe any other hidden button, which I not aware of, someone here can share. TQ
I dont think Ikelite does a control to handle that kind of button, so it was never going to be an upgrade, is it done on other housings Id be interested to see how they did it?
There isnt an alternative I could find in the manual either. I find Im generally able to zoom in enough to check focus but it is a pity not to have it, would be good for quickly changing focus point as well.

The Subal C40 housing has a control to enable the multi-controller to be used in the housing. The knob on the outside has a mark which you point the direction you want the multi-control to move, you then press it in and a bump on the control inside the housing moves the multi-control joystick in the direction you have selected.
