Started in 2004 with a POS disposable film camera. Was able to get 2 or 3 decent shots and it was all down hill from there. Purchased an Olympus 5060 and Ikelite housing with Ikelite strobe. From there moved on to DSLR, first with a Canon XTi and now with a Canon 5D Mark II. Currently my Canon is housed in an Ikelite housing with dual Ikelite 161 strobes.
