I'm sure it's been asked before and did see a few threads on it in the search: Long story short, I'm a photography on dry land and use a Nikon D2x, random glass, lighting, etc. I don't really want to spend $2000-$6000 on an underwater case for my Nikon, especially since video is not an option on this body. I have on free loan a SeaLife setup which includes the strobes, camera, case, mount, etc. It is great! However, it's only a 6.1 megapixel camera and the tech geek in me is cringing...
I'm on my 3rd GoPro (Original non-HD, Hero1 HD, Hero2 HD now -BadAssXJ - YouTube). I love it. I'd love to bring it with me when I head to Bonaire this summer. I plan to purchase the Dive case from GoPro ($49.99) + a red filter I found on another site ($14.95). Aside from that, I'd like a mount for it. I was looking at mount "kit" and most seem in the $500-ish dollar range if a light is included.
Anyone have any recommendations on kits I can purchase that aren't going to break the bank? I'm thinking if I can't find anything in a decent range that I will use a piece of aluminum with a mount on the one side for the camera, and a mount on the other side for the handle & possibly a light. Any help is much appreciated.
