Howdy folks,
I'm going to pull the trigger on a Sola 1200. My original justification to myself for this indulgence is that it can pull triple duty primary dive light, video light and focus light. Since the original reason for the purchase is a focus light I'm leaning towards the photo version since it includes the red LED option as well as a 1200L white flood for video.
Me real question here is with respect to the dive light vs the photo option. I noticed the dive/video light works as either a spot light or a flood (no red LED) and the photo version is flood only (red/white LED).
Has anyone tried the 1200 photo as a primary dive light, when not lugging the camera. My local diving is quite murky and a spot is attractive for this, but I feel like the red LED is the way to go as a focus light.
They're both the same price and I'm waffling. Any experience with either option would be appreciated.
