I've enjoyed the previous threads on GoPro mounts and lighting.
I dive most often in Monterey/Carmel area with often low visibility and dark conditions.
The "best" setup people seem to recommend most often is a camera mount with two lights, such as the Backscatter package with two Solas. This seems to be a good value within the range of options out there. Albeit expensive when considered on its own.
The iSteady Mark III (bigger grips for divers, a glove-friendly button) looks like a great, well-designed mount. But it can only support one light. Would one light be adequate, good, great but not as great as 2?
If just one light, would a "traditional" camera mount with a loc-line style arm be preferable to the iSteady where the light is mounted above the camera.
The Hero3 Black supposedly has a better low-light sensor. How does that impact this decision? One light sufficient in that case?
Thanks!
