I just happened to read an article that mentioned housings for the 7D today. Typical of such housings, the one housing mentioned (the Sea & Sea MDX-7D) costs twice as much as the camera body itself. Street price is roughly $3800 for the MDX-7D. Sea & Sea is a well known manufacturer of underwater camera gear but, a quick check of B&H Photo of NYC, New York (http://www.bhphoto.com) yields a couple other options but, they aren't especially cheap either. Those results are as follows: Ikelite, 6871.07 eTTL Housing f/ Canon EOS 7D http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/660483-REG/Ikelite_6871_07_6871_07_eTTL_Housing_f.html Aqua Tech, CO-7 Sports Housing f/ Canon EOS 7D http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/676026-REG/Aqua_Tech_1098_CO_7_Sports_Housing_f.html Aquatica, Underwater Housing w/ Dual Fiber Optic Cable Ports f/ Canon 7D http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/673720-REG/Aquatica_20065_OPT_Underwater_Housing_w_Dual.html
