Need some advise getting a housing for digital Rebel!
I'm really interested in taking underwater pics, I have an assigment to take pictures of scuba divers. I've been searching on the internet on several housings and I got lost so I decided to get some advice from experience users. What would be the best housing for 300D? What kind of strobe do I need? Do they make the dome port that will support 35mm/1.4L?
These are the lenses that I will be using for this assignment.
Digital Rebel
Canon EF 35mm/1.4L
Sigma FE 15mm 2.8
Please give me some advise what kind of housing, strobes and dome port do I need to buy and where to get them!
Thanks,
carbotex
My personal opinion is that if you live in the US, you should look at the Aquatica and Ikelite housings for the digital Rebel. If you live in Europe, you should look at UK Germany and Subal.
I think the Aquatica is the best value for what you get, but that's just my opinion. I like its small size, nice 8" dome, and the fact that the camera mounts to the front making it easy to use.

I just wrote a quick review on the Aquatica A300. You can find it here:
Far and away the most popular strobes for new DSLR owners are the Inon Z-220 and the Ikelite DS-125. You can find lots of opinons, discussions, and even some test results with a quick search on these boards.
