Equipment for Nikon D60

Hello,

I am going on a trip to the Maldives (mostly snorkeling). I would like some advice on gear please.

I currently have a Nikon d60 with the Nikkor 18-55mm and 55-200mm lenses and also a Tamron 18-270mm lense. I was wondering whether I should expand on that or start from scratch (with a new camera) as I am not sure how suitable D60 is for underwater (and any of the lenses). Apart from housing (which one is recommended?), I probably need micro/macro/wideangle lense (lenses?) and reading up online, there seem to be many choices. What about flash?

If any of you are using D60, I would be very interested to know what equipment you use in addition (and for what reason). I am just looking to take decent photos, nothing too fancy/complicated. So a compromise/all-round gear is probably what I am looking for.

Many thanks in advance,

hi i have a d40x with 18-55 lens. Yours nikon d60 is the next version. Aquatica makes a great housing with all the ports and gears needed. It works great. For flash as i shoot on manual only i am still using my sb105 nikon and my ikelite ai strobes. My buddy has a 16-85 lens which does a mild wide angle to macro by using the zoom. I think this is the lens i will be getting as it is versitile. Unless he goes back to truk lagoon again he probably won't need another lens.
