I'm new to diving (only 16 dives in my log) and I'd like to start taking some underwater pic's.

Before I throw down the big $$$ for a nice new camera and housing I thought I'd try to get some mileage out of my existing camera.
I currently have an Olympus D-460 digital, and I'd like to find a housing for it.
As far as I can tell, they don't make them anymore, so I'm forced into the used market.

The housing I need would be an Olympus PT-006.
Anybody have a housing they want to unload?

I noticed on Digideep.com's website that this housing ceased production in January of 2000. Your odds of finding one are pretty slim at best.

Permit me to give you my two cents worth and please do not take offense. The camera in question is 1.3 megapixels and is too far behind the curve for you to spend money on a housing for it, even if you could locate one.

IMHO it would be better for you to invest in a higher megapixel camera and corresponding housing.

I agree with Gilligan. I haven't even seen a PT-006 on eBay for months.
