Right now I'm using a Canon Powershot a570is. It's mainly a still photo camera. It's done the job so far. I think I've gotten some pretty decent shots using it so far.
I'm wondering if videos like this and this would be considerably better if I were using a GoPro Hero 3+ Black.
Also wondering how much difference it would make having a light or not during a daytime dive.
Take into account all of the particulate in the water. I don't know that a better camera is going to be able to do much for that, and adding light might actually bring it out more.
I've seen a few other portable action cameras. Checked out this but I don't usually trust reviews on a websites like that. They never bash anything. Everything always gets sterling reviews.
The Sony Action Cam would be my second choice. Seems to get pretty good reviews as well. The price seems to be better as well.
Going by the comparison videos of the two, though, the GoPro seems to be much better underwater.
