I had a bad experience with a flooded housing in the first day of a several days dive excursion.
I also realized that I prefer a photo camera with video capability and not a video camera with limited photo capability.
I also would prefer a camera without UW Housing. Too bulky and too risky.
I narrowed the possibilities to the Nikon Coolpix AW130 and Sealife Micro HD+
AW130 is rated to 30 meters, while the Micro HD is rated up to 60 meters.
Besides Sealife is permanently sealed, this is no doors, no o-rings, no memory card, while AW130 has a unique door for charging, battery and MC.
AW130 is cheaper, but I already went with the cheaper options and costed more in long range.
Something that shocked me is that the more complete Sealife Micro HD+ seems to be discontinued and the Micro HD is only available (half the memory capacity and no WiFi).
I've been reading the reviews of the AW130 and not all people seems to be happy with it.
The reviews I've seen of the Micro HD seems a little biased.
Comments please ?
Thanks.
