Thanks for the feed-back, I didn't know about the Gates, their model has the added advantage of an optional video monitor. I'm hoping someone can share their experience with these housings.

Re: Underwater housing for Sony EX1

I've worked with the EX1 Gates housing, awesome just like most Gates products and I would definaltely purchased the SWP44c port as it is a superb piece of optics and really is so much better than standard Sp44.

If you are looking for a second hand one I know someone who is selling an Ex1 not Ex1r housing, pm me if youare interested
