Dive housing for E-M5?

[thinkcooper]

Anyone have the skinny on availability dates on dive housings for the E-M5?

The PT-EP08 is in tease mode. I can't find any info about housings from either Nauticam or 10Bar either.

Can anyone help a brother spend some coin?

I was chatting with the guys at Optical Ocean Sales last weekend and they speculated that they wouldn't see a housing for the OM-D before the fall. If you need to do some shooting in the next few months, you might have to get a housing for one of your PENs.

I see that it will be available in "late July"

When I got the housing for my E-PL1, I got it on Ebay, from a vendor in Hong Kong. It arrived months before it was available in the US. I would suggest to check Ebay regularly.

Just received this email note from Nauticam regarding an E-M5 dive housing...

Hi Steve,

Stay tuned... There is a sample being dived at the Digital Shootout now, and we should have some images shortly!
