Anyone using the rx100 vi or vii underwater? I can see a few housing options on the net, but none are available over counter here in Stockholm.
I've not used any of them, but I got the sense that the last two models were developed for above water needs, so you might do better with the older ones.
Not the best choice for macro.
Backscatter review of RX100 VI is actually singing praises to its macro capability: https://www.backscatter.com/reviews/post/Sony-RX100-VI-Underwater-Camera-Review
It's a challenge to house, requiring a port system and giving up the flexibility of earlier models, but for macro it has some distinct advantages.
Thanks for the link! Have you tried it yourself ?
