Hello everyone,
Just getting started here, looking for a "real" kit I can use here in Palm Beach, FL, for stills and video. Mostly looking to do "big" stuff like goliaths, sharks, wrecks, etc. I GoPro'd for a while and now want to start getting images I can blow up on metal shiny prints.
Anyway, looking at the gear offerings out there, I have pretty much decided on the Sony a6000 or a6300 if I can afford it. For housings, I am leaning towards the Ikelite over nauticam or Sea and Sea because of budget and cheaper ports if I get new glass. For now I'll probably use the kit lens until i can justify something more interesting.
Looking for input on the ikelite housing with the a6000 if anyone has used it? I anticipate using ambient light initially to see how that goes. Also want something with a dome that I can use for "split" shots as we fish a lot and I want to get fish/boat pics as we release them.
At the end of the day I want something I can add on to as my needs/interests change. Looked at the Meikon but seems limiting if I decide to change glass.
Most of my dives are 60-90 feet, usually good to great visibility.
thanks in advance! and if you have any equipment you are selling, pm me!
