    Thank you for all your responses! I greatly appreciate your input. I do agree that support is very important and that it would be easier with Nauticam in USA. I was looking into Hugufot only because it is equiped with "HugyCheck" - the pre-dive vacuum system. I definitely dont want to flood my camera and that is why I have been looking around for some extra safety system. I will try to look some more into Nauticam before I make my final decision :) Thank you everybody for all your responses- I trust your experience! :)

    Hello!

     

    My name is Angelika and Im new to this forum. I would like to start playing with underwater photography and photography in general. I need some advice that would help me make the right decision ;)

    I have Rebel T2i and Ive started to look for an underwater housing for it. Im petite in size and would prefer a small housing for my camera. Im looking to spend up to $2500-3000 for the housing, but preferably less. The only housing I did hold in my hands was Hugyfot and I quite liked it. However, I would like to now if anybody could recommend something else worth checking that would be also of good quality.

    Is it possible to buy a used Hugyfot from a reliable source? where should I look?

    I would appreciate any feedback. Thank you :D

    Hi Cody,

     

    My father was a Marine in WWII and I've been to Japan and dived in Okinawa in the Keramas Islands so I guess I'll answer your post :D

     

    RUN, DO NOT WALK to your nearest bookstore and buy a copy of a book by Martin Edge "The Underwater Photographer, 4th Edition". You may see the 3rd edition of his book, but the 4th edition is the one you want to buy. Read it and absorb all you can and then you'll be off to a great start, i.e. you'll have a good idea of what you need to get started and you'll probably be in much better shape than a lot of folks starting out in underwater photography.

     

    Of course, feel free to visit here and ask all of the questions that come to mind. We're here to help!

     

    Kind regards,

     

    Ellen

     

    Edited to add: I researched your camera on www.digideep.com and found that there currently is no housing available for the Nikon Coolpix P100.
