![]() | I now use two Sony mini DV video cameras. The Sony DCRPC101and the older DSRPC1. The auto focus on the newer camera is not as good but has a better overall picture/sound. | The video camera is kept in a splash proof housing. This is waterproof to 2m. I also have a Sea & Sea underwater housing for the PC1 but this is heavy and bulky for above water shots. It does allow wide angle lenses to be used. | ![]() |
