I think next year I would like to start putting a video camera under water and try to record what's down under me.  I have a couple of kayaks and a canoe and spend a lot of time on some very clear strip pit ponds.  

 

 So if any of you out there have recorded under water, what video camera do you use or recommend?  I don't have a go-pro and don't really know any thing about them.  Do they come with a water proof case that can be put under water to about thirty feet or so?  

 

 Thanks!

I have tons of underwater video from one of my private ponds in De. The go pro does a nice job and is supposedly safe to over 100ft. I normally don't film any deeper than 12ft or so even though it's 25ft deep. It's interesting to see what's going on down there.

There are a lot of action cameras out there now, but the GoPro seems to dominate. I'd give them a shot especially since you can probably pick up a used one soon with the release of the new GoPro Hero 4 coming out very soon.
