I read on a forum somewhere that there were just enough differences in the two cameras, primarily the location of some controls to make the Dx 200 not compatible with the housing. Too bad, maybe they will make the software upgrades available. Mark

I sent a e-mail to the US customer service rep, withthe serial number of my housing and he is sending me one free of charge. Mark

I have just ordered that same light and set up, so I'll be interested to learn how your experiment goes.

I have a similar problem reading the info in the viewfinder, I am going to add a focus light and I am getting some 2.0 diopters for my mask. I found the autofocus to be just fine, I used manual exposure mode.
-
Thanks, I shot in manual mode the entire time. I found it very easy to dial i n the exposure with the strobe. Indonesia is an amazing destination. Lots of current though.

Great! I approved you on my Facebook account. Very glad you like the photos. I have a lot more to edit and will add to them. Sadly I will not be diving again until next June, but I will be going on the Sardine Run in South Africa.

I just returned from Komodo Dancer trip, and My DX-1G performed flawlessly, or almost. I got some great photos and will be posting some as soon as I have time to sort through them. I Love this camera!

I am leaving for my trip aboard the Komodo Dancer, next Sunday, October 5th, where I will give my DX-1G it's first real workout. I can not wait. I'll post some photos here when I return sometime around the 25th of October.
-
That's some great information. I too would like to know where to get these. I am going to Indonesia Oct. 5 and would like to acquire one before then.
-
Nice stuff! I have not done much Macro and none with this setup, but hope to do some in Komodo this October. Do you have closeup lenses or just use macro mode? Did you shoot manual or auto? More details please! Thanks for sharing
-
Thanks. When you get yours, be sure and post some photos here too.

Shutter lag was not a problem. Like most automatic focus cameras, it won't fire unless something is in focus, and in low light this was sometimes a problem. Using a small dive light as a focus light helps out in this area. That also makes the screen easier to read in low light
