Subject: Olympus C-4040 for $560--should I ? Author: SteppinRazor Date: 5/29/2002 11:35:43 PM Message:    Background: I'm fairly new to diving; my husband is DM certified with 250+ dives. We have an old Reefmaster (tsk, it's not polite to snicker!), but it's time to move up. This will be a combined father's day/honeymoon surprise gift. So... Given that we were craz-- er, generous enough to tell our kids they could come with us to Coz, and that we're bringing along a third adult to watch the kids whilst we dive, the budget is not unlimited. However, I've read a lot of good things about the Olympus C4040. I'm thinking a P-010 housing and ??? strobe. The Oly is on sale, new, for $560--but only through the end of the week. This is $60 less than I've found anywhere else. Teetering on the brink.... should I? And what strobe to get? Ikelite? Sea&Sea? This is an order-of-magnitude jump for us, both in $$ and in features, so I don't want to muff it. Thanks!
