| Hello ! I am in the process of looking for a new UW-Camera (digital). Before I used a Olympus C5050 with a PT-015 housing and I was very satisfied with the result - even without an external strobe (thanks to Photoshop...) Today I tested the new C5060 and was impressed (faster autofocus, wide angle and quieter zooming). Since the C5060 uses LiIon-batteries I am wondering if anyone uses this combination. My first UW-camera was a SONY DSC-P5 with the SONY housing and that was very bad: the housing began fogging just after 10 minutes into the dive - I think because of the LiIon-batteries the SONY uses - they get very hot... 8(( With the C5050 I used "regular" rechargable AA-type batteries and that worked great:two or three dives with one set of batteries and no fogging of the housing. Now I fear that the C5060 (or its LiIon-batteries to be more exact) might fog the housing also. Anyone out there who can tell me his/her experience (handling under water/fogging/ how many pictures before the batteries need charging and so on)? Also I´m very interested in hearing what kind of external strobes you use with that combination and which settings you use with your camera and with your flash. TIA Jörg (from Germany - so please excuse my not so good english) -- Ich glaube jedem, der die Wahrheit sucht. Ich glaube niemandem, der sie gefunden hat. (Tucholsky) |
