Cameras Underwater: Ikelite housing for Nikon D80 SLR: 6808.1 for the Ikelite at £985 and a depth of 60m

Hugyfoot Nikon D80 - £ 1350 ~ Jan'07 and would think the specs would be similar to the D70 and a depth rating of around 100m

With regard to functionality, not sure, I know that the girlfriend of Brian at Aquanauts, Plymouth uses a Hugyfoot for her Nikon and I am sure there are plenty who use Ikes here to give you an idea of what they are like. Although there is only £350 in the housing cost, you will need to look at all the ancilliaries as they soon become expensive.
