My husband and I are going on a Great White Shark dive trip next summer and I want to buy a housing and strobe for my Nikon D3100. I have the 18-55 AF-S lens. I've seen a Nimar and an Ikelite housing and was hoping for some advice as to which one o buy? Also, the Ikelite housing/port/strobe choices are SUPER confusing so any help on which pieces I'd need would be greatly appreciated.
Lastly, should I be using a different lens? If so what? I've seen talk about using a wide angle or fisheye lens, would that be better than the 18-55 AF-S I have? Which ones are recommended for my camera?
I don't really have a budget ... last year we saw a Tiger shark in Fiji and while our SeaLife camera/strobe got decent video, the pictures were less than I'd hoped for. I don't want to come back from another dive trip disappointed in my photos!
Thanks!!
