It's been a good long time since my lat post on the 'Board... I'm itching to get back to undewater pic takin!
I'm a dedicated Canonite... but of course the Oly "Pen" EP-1 caught my eye and I suddenly had the idea that maybe it could replace my G6!!! I don't think Canon will come up with anything as cool as the EP-1 (if they ever even go m4/3 at all!!!)... and if they did it probably wouldn't be as cool. Brings me back to my Oly Advantix P&S film cam I had in the late 90's, I loved that camera!
Okay, so here's the question: What's the demand for an underwater version of this cam? I don't think much needs to be changed on the camera itself... just give me a housing and I'll be happy... preferably not a huge brick that negates the compact feel of the m4/3's system.
I will probably end up getting one anyways, even if a housing never becomes available... But I'd like to think other photogs are thinking/wishing along the sane lines as me!
