I am purchasing a Sony RX1R for travel use and would perhaps be interested in buying the RecSea housing, the underwater usability of this camera seems very limited though.
Whilst it does have a fixed focal length lens, it has an optical zoom (4x, 6.1x. & 9.1x) which could open up more possibilities. What type of photography would be possible with this setup? I also own a Nikon D800 & D7000, but would prefer to use the RX1R as it is considerably smaller, which i prefer as i am still a beginner diver.

Is there something i'm missing here? The Sony RX-100 has a 28-100mm lens. The lower end of this lens at 28mm is actually equivalent to 35mm as far as the field of view goes (due to the crop factor of the sensor). The Sony RX1R's 35mm lens is on a full format sensor, so doesn't have a crop factor. The field of view should be the same or similar if i am not mistaken? Pls correct if my am wrong in this respect.
