I had a new toy. My brand new Canon 5D MK II SLR and video camera and housing (Ikelite). I had Nick and his cast, all from Wreck Valley.Com on hand to show their stuff.

Too bad that I had to post a waterdown version using a Flash Video upload. But, compared to my 12 year old Sony digital tape camcorder, this actually makes Dutch Springs look like a tropical resort (OK, maybe stretching this a bit).

The beauty is that I was able to use a 15MM fisheye lens and this is the real improvement over the standard brands of camcorder HD video machines. This was shot in SD (480) but even if I did it in HD I was not going to pay a WEB site to post an HD version Dutch Springs video.

The video is posted at my Shutterfly site:

The video is also posted on You Tube:

I guess at somepoint youll save up and get some lights? Looks pretty green and murky to me!
 
Nice video! The song you used is *hilarious*!!

I have twin 15 watt HID camera lights that I will have to custom mount to the housing.
 
I have the 5d SD well an can't decide if I want to spend the money on housing and lights. I shoot u/w now with a g10 and Fisheye housing and the Fisheye 1000 light and it offers ok light! Dilema
