Subject: Really Deep Video


I'm planning a 500ft mix dive next month, and would like
to take video .  Problem is, my Gates housing (for the
Sony PC7 digital camera) is only good to 250-300 feet or so.

The people at Gates say it'll proably go deeper, but this
rig was expensive, and I don't really want to try it.

So I had an idea.  What if I fitted the housing with an
LP inflator fitting, and pressurized the housing to 
a  few ATA to offset the external pressure?

Anybody have any idea whether or not the camera could
take it?

-Will
