Underwater housing for Leica D-Lux 3

[DoctorDiver]

Does anyone know whether there is an underwater housing for either a Leica Digilux 1 or D-Lux 3?

Epoque makes a housing for it. Don't know who carries it though.

Thanks. There's a Japanese site, www.fun-in.com that sells the Epoque UHC-LD3 which looks like it's made for the Leica D-Lux 3 and the similar Panasonic. It's rated to 45 msw and is expensive @ $1580.25.

Check digideep, if there's any others they'll likely list it. You have to scroll down some to see the digital camera listings on the right side of the page.

Did you ever get a housing for the D-Lux 3? I am considering purchasing such a housing for my D-Lux 3. I realize it is probably not a rational decision, but I love the pictures I get above water with the camera. I have a SeaLife DC500 and have compared pictures taken on land with the SeaLife camera to the D-Lux 3. The DC500 camera is like a toy compared to the D-Lux 3. The D-Lux 3 also compares favorably to my Canon Digital Rebel. I really do not like the size of SLR housing and not that interested with manual settings. Any thoughts. Steve
