Hi

I am buying a Ikelite housing for my HD sony video camera, I am only going to use it on day dives. Is it necessary to get lights for it, or will I be satisfied without??

Thanks
 
Never hurts to have them...especially HD. That being said if you shoot shallow and in azure blue waters the lights make a small difference in back-lit scenes, or fill-in when there are slight shadows. When I used to shoot shallow in sun-dappled Catalina Island the lights were rarely used.
