The 40D is very new, don't know how many housings are out yet. If you want to get a good general purpose underwater lens - recommended you look at the Sigma 17-70. Lot's of people love this lens - I'll bet the cost of this lens and and an Ike housing is cheaper than most of the other housings by themselves.
Is this Sigma 17-70 better then the Canon 17-55 USM? Maybe I can pick one up used somewhere.
