Have you sold it yet?

Yes, you read that price correctly. Small group trips all over the west pacific. Details are here: Scubaguam.com.

SOLD

This is a complete HD 1080 video system pkg with a spare camera. This system was used for ta TV series and other videos that I have produced. It has a built in filter for blue water, wide angle zoom thru and separate close up lens, spare batteries and chargers, a great monitor, a spare HFS-11 with an really nice Raynox wide angle lens, clip to attach the unit to you, and a separate mic. This promo video taken last year is an example of what the camera can do. https://vimeo.com/51183548. I have float-stix modules on the bottom to make this unit slightly negative u/w and will include them The only items that are not included and I have sold separately are the Sola 2000 lights. You can also take very good still pix with it. This is ready to dive with. New it cost me way over $6,000. I'm asking $2,200 and I'd like to sell it to someone here on Wetpixel before I put it on Ebay. I live on Guam so the shipping would be by usps priority mail.

Thanks for confirming the weight. I have a new Sony NEX-5 and Nauticam housing that I'll be using with it.

I currently have an Inon s-2000 and need to get one more strobe. I'm considering the Sea & Sea ys-110a as it has a focus light and has a higher guide number. I use home made loc line arms and the specs say it weights -.04 ounces u/w. I plan on using a Stix float on the arm. Not that I doubt manufacturers claims but is the strobe really that light? Thanks for any help on this.

Totally agree. In the end you'll be happy you did. As someone pointed out a wide angle lens (>75 degrees) is a great help with video. Good luck.

I've put up some info and videos from two different small video cameras here: http://www.scubaguam.com/index.htm. Hope this helps.

Thanks to both for the answers. I'll pass them on. Phil, it was your review on the housing that I recommended he read. He based his decision to get it from that. Very factual review. Thanks. Hell, I might even get one. It would be nice to have one camera that takes both decent video and stills.

OK, a friend of mine is trying to decide (before buying anything) which of the following adapters for the NEX 5 16mm lens will give him an overall wider image on the Nauticam housing with the wide dome port. The VCL-ECF1 (fisheye) or the VCL-ECU1 (wide angle conversion??? I'm assuming, only by the name, that the fisheye will but he doesn't like the fisheye effect on lenses. I don't shoot stills, but told him I knew a forum that just might have the answers. Ideas???

FYI, there's a soft focus issue on the GoPro HD housing when shooting u/w so you might want to get a flat lens corrected housing. There's a couple of manufacturers of these, and one of em is here: http://www.eyeofmine.com/gopro/index.html. I also took the camera with the flat lens housing out and tested it under varying conditions. The video is here: http://vimeo.com/14169610 Hope this helps.

If is there I don't know where it is. They have outputs, but no apparent inputs.

I have the Gates housing.

Yeah, I knew that but was hoping someone else had another workaround on a lens. Thanks anyway.

Anyone know of a wider port than the GP-32 for this housing?
