Ikelite at about $1400 is good if you're on a budget, but if you already shelled out for a 5D MII then spend an extra $1500 for an Aquatica housing or another top of the line housing. A good contact for advice is Russ at Backscatter in Monterey CA

Hi all, I've been looking for the best housing for my 5D MII. Some says Ikelite not really recommended, but some says is OK. Can anybody give some advice?. Cheers, Dive safely.

Wow! Can I see your work somewhere? Are you on Vimeo?

Thanks a lot for your advices! Very useful.. Where will you bee shooting on the 10th?

I'm really looking forward to be using the 7d underwater. The manual focus is a bit tricky as you say - hope it's not too complicated.

Been shooting UW video since 1996. At work I get to use a SONY EX-1 which is what I will use on 10.10.10, but the Canon 7D is nearly as good and much less expensive so that's what I bought for myself, plus it's much lighter to carry on long trips AND takes great photos! Your lens sounds right for the job, and the LED light will be very useful at times. Just work on holding the camera steady in video mode - hard to do with the rear LCD screen (vs having a monitor on top of the housing like I rigged up). Shoot with the sun behind you whenever possible - you probably know that. Focus can be a challenge with SLR's in video mode underwater, and the 7D does not have continuous auto-focus. Pre-set your focus or use the quick focus mode when in live view. I'm still new at using the 7D underwater so I'll be anxious to hear your results too. Also, test using the manual white balance to get better color underwater (and take a white card and learn how to use the manual white balance operation).
