I received the underwater housing for my xr-100 the other day! I'm excited beyond belief and ready to get some shots from the lineup.
I had some concern before I purchased this particular housing. I wasn't sure if it was going to work with the lens that I use most of the time, a Raynox 0.3x semi-fisheye (hi-def). For anyone who uses the xr-100 knows that it's somewhat useless without the use of a wide angle or fisheye.
I found that the underwater housing has ample space but it didn't come with an adapter that would work with this particular camera/lens combination. So, what I had to do was modify one of the adapters by fusing a tripod mounting plate into it. It ended up turning out perfect and ready for a sesh.
Film and photo from the water for those of us of non Woody Woodworth stature.
I'm also soon going to put this Chinon CXII from 1978 to use.
