I want to buy my fiancee a GoPro for when we dive. I cant tell the difference or understand what is needed to make each camera be optimal. Can someone lead me in the right direction. I am confused about the GoPro 2 and 3. The new one came out quickly from the old model so I am wondering if its worth it to spend more to get the newest one or just stick to the GoPro2 and with the extra savings buy the accessories.
Our main diving is of the coast of SoCal. We will travel to Caribbean and beyond in the coming years. There is no fresh water diving for us that I can foresee.
He wants a camera that he can take on a dive and use while he is driving the boat/car/motorcycle. He does not care if its the latest model, new or a refurb, or has all the do dads. He would just want it to work for him.
I want to get him something that is awesome. For him money is no object but in reality, I dont want to spend the max budget for the camera since I know that additional accessories are needed. I want to make sure that when I hand him the box, it will work for every need that we currently think he will have so having a list of must have accessory items would be helpful.
Can I get some tips and info about what to do here?
