Hi all - looking for your honest opinions on the below:
I'm currently an average land photographer. I've only ever used an old GoPro 3+ underwater but I'm keen to upgrade and try to take some proper photos.
The cheapest housing I can find for my current DSLR (Nikon D5500) is £1k (Nimar) so it looks like it'll be more cost effective to change my camera. I do a lot of travelling (well I used to...) so also like the idea of the smaller mirrorless package v DSLR for carting around on a backpacking trip.

I'm currently looking at:
- Sony A6400 with kit lens (I considered the A6000 but would prefer a weather sealed body as I live in Scotland)
- Sea Frog A6xxx housing
- A lot of threads on here appear to be quite positive about the A6400 - any negatives?
- What's the best macro lens (<£500) for the A6400 and which port would I need?
- Can you use trays/arms etc across different housing brands or do you need to stick with your brand?
- Can you get away with only one strobe - budget is tight so ideally I'd start with only one for now.
