Re: Buy housing for my GX85, GoPro or other camera + housing?

Hi Filip,

Buying housing is not enough. You need flash, lenses (Macro, Wideangle, Fisheye) and ports also. A good system based on GX85 will cost many thousands of Euro (or $)...

Price differences between different housing manufacturers reflect the difference in quality and comfort when using. You get what you pay for. In any case I recommend vaccum system: provides 99,99% insurance against flooding.

Maybe for beginning a TG-5 (or 6) is ideal for you. But you still need housing and flash...
