Anyone ever have any luck trying to make your own waterhousing for a camera? I really want to take my camera with me on a kayak but I don't have the money to buy something nice.

Your pic related is seriously what I would do
I mean I would just shoot it without a care since my nikon is weather sealed
But whenever in-water just wrap a rubber on it

Just buy a waterproof P&S for <$100 if you're a digifag or a Nikonos for <$100 if you're a filmfag.

If thats too expensive then you probably shouldn't be risking your current equipment on half-assed homemade water housing anyway.

This, you're going to spend a lot more to replace your current camera when your half-assed DIY attempt fails than you would on a waterproof camera. There's a reason housings are so bulky and expensive.

I just take my old 400d and a lens I don't love (17-85 in this case) on my kayak. I'd it gets wet, life will go on.

You're gonna get photos taken through a condom. Terrible, terrible blurry smudgy ones. If I were you I'd use it as is hoping for the best, since water won't erase already taken photos off the card and worst case scenario I need to upgrade or second hand buy an old digital p&s worth what, like 20$/€ at best nowadays.

This.
I've tried it and it looked like shit.
>>
Zip lock bag dude. Just hold it taut over the lens and you will not notice it at all.

tip of the day: make sure condom is ribbed for her pleasure

I did this before. It was very obviously in a Ziploc bag. The photos were extremely soft and low contrast.
