I've gotten to the point where I'm considering upgrading my uw photo rig. I've been an amateur topside photographer for many years, but have only been shooting uw for about a year -- using a Sea Life DC1000 as a starter kit to get practice and experience. My primary land camera is a D700. I'd rather not take the D700 under since my wife and I do a ton of top side shooting while we're on dive trips. I also have an older D70 as a secondary/backup. So here's where I could use some help.
Do I get a housing for the D70 (such as an Ikelite 6807.1 - if I can find one), or do I bite the bullet and pick up a newer camera body (like a D90)? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
