OK, I finally got to dive with this and I love it. Mind you, I was in a cave without a strobe, but I was happy with what I got. I will post some pics in a bit.

I got the 8010, too. It's my first U/W camera experience. Below are some Maui
videos I just posted. I appended a couple stills from the Maui cave, too.
Actually, the last one from Monterey is the best. It was my first U/W video

Can anyone tell me what type of fish this is? Shot at 5 graves dive site.
Sorry it's such a poor quality video. Some frames have a fair picture and
the swimming style is very odd. This got ID'ed by Mike Boom et al as a
juvenile rockmover wrasse.

Do you guys like the camera? I had an old canon in a housing that leaked. I like that this is a waterproof camera in a housing so if the case leaks youre still safe.

Either of you try it with a strobe on it?
