Ikelite AF35 strobe or other for underwater photos with G9?

Jun 7, 2008 8:52PM PDT

I have a Canon G9 and a Canon underwater housing for it to go scuba diving. I'd like to add a strobe for better pictures, but not break the bank.

I'm leaning towards the Ikelite AF35 right now as it's got automatic exposure and comes with the sensor, arm and tray.

Has anyone else used this strobe system, especially with the G9? Any other recommendations for something similar that might be better, and if it's better, then why?

Finally, Ikelite says this strobe and tray fit "most" Canon housings...again, has anybody tried it?
