Wanted: 1st time underwater photography rig. Sealife DC1400 or similar.

[StuartT]

So I picked up an Intova Nova HD to play with. While a nice underwater video camera that appears to be better than a GoPro, it does not take great pictures.

So I am thinking I made a mistake and am going to sell the Intova.

Basically at this point I'd like to spend 300 max if possible for a camera - housing - flash combo and am hoping I can get a 10mp camera or better.

I am in correspondence with some of the offers above. Thank you.

I am aware that asking for a sub $300 combo is a big ask. However that's the budget for now. In a couple of months or around Christmas I'll be able to spend around $500

Thanks guys!

Thanks for all the replies. After further thought I am going to put this purchase on hold until I can afford a decent package in a few months.

I may try my current strobes, tray and video light with the new camera and housing I've ordered. I'll let you know if it doesn't work and my current rig will be up for grabs. Would take $500 usd
