Thomas,
Do you have the proper housing for YOU to go to 100 meters!?

Well, I'll probably use some external canister lights anyways, flood-light
type lighting. So it'll just be a matter of color balance, not quantity of
light.

Well, 5-10m is definitely too shallow for what I intend to do. I need a
house rated to at least 40m, preferably 100m (which, incidentially, seems
to exclude most, if not all, current housings for digicams....)
Thanks anyways
