Lee,

I would use my Sony, if I could find a housing for it that doesn't cost an
arm and a leg........

Last I checked, Lexan housings are available, but are at a premium,
cost-wise.......

I have heard of people using "zip-lock" type bags, or placing the camera in
a glass container, like a smallish tank and partially submerging it, being
careful of course, not to get any water into the camera. But, I'd kinda like
to keep my Sony video-cam dry and use it a while longer.........

Regards,

BG
