Underwater stills set up wanted
As it says on the tin - but 60 metre rated please - I've jammed the buttons on mine a few too many times.

Any for sale - or any suggestions for a good set up?

I've just got a Fuji E900 (9MPixel), the only housing is the Ikelite 60m.

Camera £180, housing £200.

Any flash would have to be a slave as there is no hotshoe.
