Hello,
I am looking for some information on an underwater housing for my "cheap" camera. I have the Nikon D50 that I would love to get a housing for but budget does not allow it. Therefore, I am looking for one for my Coolpix 5600. It looks like there are two options that I have found. The Fantasea CP-6 and the Nikon WP-CP3. From what limited information I can find online, for a few bucks more, the WP-CP3 seems like a better housing. Does anyone have any experience with either? OR is there a different one out there you would suggest?
If I do pull the trigger on either, what are my options for add-ons such as strobes? I am not expecting much but wanted to get comfortable underwater with a camera before I spend the big bucks on the D50 housing.
Thoughts, suggestions, help? Thanks in advance!
