    Housings for Panasonic cameras ????

    Does anyone make housings for Panasonic cameras ??? I was looking at the new FZ-18 model and it has gotten great reviews. It comes with a 18x Leica zoom lens and is supposed to have a very fast response time (unlimited 2 frames per second, fast start up and very quick & accurate focus). I know Ikelite doesn't make anything for Panasonic and am afraid that perhaps no one does. Thought I'd check though.

    According to the housing finder on digideep.com, there is no housing available for this camera. List of underwater housings that turn the Panasonic DMC-FZ18 into an underwater camera
    However, it appears to be a new camera so there might be something available in the next few months.
