Yeah, I'm about 12 months too late to catch any real interest, at least at any decent price. I'll probably see what eBay has to offer then just keep the whole setup and start over.

Email me with which manuals you are missing, if I can find them easily I might be able to scan them if you want.

Hey James, you're smart to get all this out of your system before you get married

too funny (and true).

Forgot about the Gates, thanks for that.

As for the S&S, it's $6k, and for that price I'd rather just buy a Subal or Seacam.  

I still think Ike's the best chance of getting a reasonably priced housing for the 1D, but I think volume is a concern because the housing won't easily fit into the existing housings.  I wonder if he'd do it if there were more than 1 or 2 people willing???

Ike, are you listening????  

Well, at the risk of being branded an Ikelite dealer (), I'd also second Peter's recommendation for a 20D in an Ikelite housing. Great camera, very functional and reliable housing, and eTTL flash until you are ready to learn to shoot manual flash.
