As things stand, I am happy with the results that I have gotten with my current photo gear (Oly E-PL 1, Panasonic 8mm Fisheye lens, Oly housing with 100mm Zen dome port and a pair of Inon D2000 strobes) but I want to upgrade to a camera with an APS-C sensor. I also want to keep things as small as possible with the goal of packing it all into my carry-on. I have already swapped out my Inon strobes for Sea & Sea YS-03 strobes (I might be giving up a little versatility, but they are small.) The YS-03 strobes will commit me to Fiber Optic cables to trigger them.
Here is what I am looking at:
Either a Canon M3 camera with a Nauticam Housing lens and camera TBD or
Sony A6x00 (A6000, 6300 or 6500) camera and either the Sony 10-16mm or the Zeiss 12mm lens, in a Nauticam housing / Port.
What I am looking for in a better camera with a larger sensor while not significantly increasing the physical dimensions. I do not need "bleeding edge technology", but I am looking to have relatively current gear.
What are your thoughts? Am I going down the right path or or down a path I might regret?
