Well, did you find one? What extras did you have to buy (ports, arms, sync cords)? I am looking for an affordable housing for the s2 as well.

Well, here's a picture of my S2 rig with the front of the housing taken off:





You can see the housing, 2 arms, sync cord, and two strobes.

Here's a picture of the housing w/ the front on and the macro/flat port:



Here's a picture of the back:



What you'll need is:

Housing
Port (flat and dome would be nice)
Arm (one or two)
Strobe (one or two)
Sync cord

This applies to ANY slr housing system. So you aren't going to 'get off cheap' compared to an Olympus 4040 and PT-010. But what can you do, it's a pro camera, right?

FWIW, my photos AND my technique have improved about 100x since I upgraded from a consumer level UW system.

You haven't shown us pics in way to long, can you help us out?

[james]

Those are pix, aren't they?

Keep your pants on - I've got to sort through literally HUNDREDS of shots from Hawaii. I'm getting there. I've uploaded some shots from Puako to www.reefpix.org for a start.

Cheers
