Great job, especially for a first u/w video. It makes me want to go back sooner.

This stuff looks better than the Blue Planet video's. What did you spend on the camera?

My setup was about $700. Here is the list of what I used..

1) Kodak Zi8 (720p 60 FPS) it can shoot at 1080p at 30 FPS
2) Ikelite Compact Video Housing
3) Ikelite Pro-V8 LED Video Lite

Have you used a GoPro before for any diving vids?

No this was my first vid. But I do see many of them when I go snowboarding. Also if you dive you need to check what kind of pressure it can withstand.

Thanks! I was a great time. The reefs and wildlife in Coz are making a great comeback.

I just got back from diving in cozumel. Lost my wedding ring on my first jump in... that kind of ruined the experience for me. the diving was beautiful though

Sorry about the ring.. That will ruin a trip.. What dive company did you dive with?

thanks for sharing, nice video. The underwater light sure makes a huge difference, it's pricey though.
