Hi!
I'm a fairly new diver with about 50 logged dives. I have a Canon Rebel T3i with a 50mm macro lens and would like your opinion!
Is it better to buy the underwater housing for the Rebel now or to wait and get practice with a cheaper point and shoot (like the canon s100 which I would need to purchase). Underwater equipment is expensive, so I don't know whether to bite the bullet and pay the 2 grand to put the Rebel underwater or to just make do with a cheaper camera at around 800 dollars.
I am going on a Galapagos liveaboard in February and will need to purchase the camera equipment before then to take pictures!
The only thing I've used in the water before was a GOPro, and I was not a fan.
Thanks!
