Video equipment questions

[DiverG]

I've got a question about some video equipment.

I've got the opportunity to buy the following underwater video gear:

1. JVC GR DVF21 MiniDV Camcorder
2. Ikelite Housing
3. Ikelite Pro Video Lite II system

Price $750.00

Equipment is several years old, and has never been used. It has been stored inside.

How good of a deal is this?

sounds good. just the housing for my miniDV camcorder ran about $800.

i'd go for it. just check the o-rings for wear or deterioration. they might need to be replaced, but shouldn't cost more than about $20 and you should be able to get them from Ikelite.
