XH A1 underwater

Hi,

Yesterday I have tested my Ewa-Marine VFX underwater housing (bag, actually), designed for FX1/Z1 cams with XH A1. Though it does not fit perfectly, it was OK and I was able to control basic functions.

Have you folks tested other housings? Please share your suggestions and underwater experiences with XH A1.

Thanks!

ps. Removing mic holder, as mentioned in other thread, is absolutely positively good idea before squeezing your cam in underwater housing.

I am keeping an eye on this housing. Under development but I like the look of their Z1 housing.

Those look very serious, well beyond snorkeling fans. Thanks Tony.

Tony,

It looks like Gates makes a good housing.
All my experience has been with Amphibico,
but Gates certainly looks like it is on a comparable level.

Keep us posted, very interested.
