Lello,

Here is a link to more info than you can handle at one sitting on all things Nikon. It is regularly updated so worth a bookmark.

Thanks again for link "Flash" I will have a look at it later (I'm trying to win an underwater housing on ebay for my wifes Olympus)

Well done on that Lello,

Lello was going to give some suggestion for buying form olympus direct ebay site, but seems you got it. I put hand on few nice olympus items for very cheap and see these under water housings going for as low as $15, though usually higher only these are model specific so lucky those who have the right camera or may be it is cheaper to buy a housing first and then search for a good descent 1.3, larger format olympus.
Hope to see your housing with out leak and in action soon.

Sassan I think Olympus stopped making the housing that I've just acquired from ebay, They were going for about £120 when new and they became harder to find new. Luckily this one is still new in a box So I've got myself a bargain.
Don I probably won't be posting any underwater shots Unless I fall in the sea with the D80 (we will be living on a yacht for one of the two weeks) I will leave the underwater stuff for Tina.

I'm thinking it has something to do with fizzy pop and "Mintoes", or some other sweet with a slightly dusty sugar coating, dropped into the bottle.

Hi guys, Sorry I'd forgotten about me telling you the secret.
As soon a Christmas is over I will post details and photos of how the Champagne shot was done, So Don has a few more day to work it out.
Me thinks he knows but is not telling
