All,
I am a new Diver (~50 dives) wanting to get into UW photography. I have my own SLR (D7000) and a Consumer Cam (Fuji X100S) that I have been using on land for a few years. I am looking to buy a new setup to do underwater photography and would love some advice: Based on my research, it looks like it will be outrageously expensive for me to get housing + lenses for the SLR. I can't find any housing for the X100S. So this brings me down to buying a compact. Looking at this, my choices appear to be around Sony RX100. I am pretty new to Wet Lenses and I was wondering if someone could comment on what I would gain by getting the MK4 vs the MK3 or even the MK2. Note that I am optimizing purely for photography. I will probably get a GoPro in a year or so for 4K video so the MK4's Video capability is not that interesting. However, since this is a huge investment, I'd like to make sure I get as photography bang as possible, especially for the UW use case. However, I read a thread on this forum saying that the MK2 would be superior to the MK3 or MK4 because one would require a port for wet lenses (I don't quite completely understand that but I am still investigating) I am also open to other cameras, preferably fixed lens. Cheers
