Not sure this is the right forum for this. If it needs moving, please do.

So the Scuba Series HD720p is a scuba diving mask that also records video in high definition through a video camera near the top (Liquid Image | Scuba Series HD 720p). Just wondering what people think about it.

I've read a few reviews of it and similar cameras in the product line (Scuba Diver Info - Liquid Image VideoMask 320 Camera Mask and Travel Gadget Review - Liquid Image HD320 Scuba Mask | Jay Travels), and they're all quite positive.

I was just curious about it because it allows for video without worrying about task overloading from video recording. It's also relatively inexpensive. I'm wondering if there are problems with the mask fit, and whether the bubble issues (sound and visual) would be too extreme for it to be a good video recorder. It doesn't look too bad in the videos in the reviews, but YouTube videos are a bit worse.

Right now, I have a Canon PowerShot S95 which also records in 720p, but obviously requires more multi-tasking. With that in mind, what would you think of this product purchase?
 
A buddy of mine bought one and brought it down to Mexico when we dove the Cenotes. The video was decent but the issue was that his bubbles kept going in front of the camera every time he exhaled which was kinda hilarious because the guy is an air hog. You might want to keep that in mind.
 
Yup, bubbles seem like too big of a deal. Hopefully just filming with My Canon S95 should be as good or better.
