Underwater case for Video Camera

cojobt · 2011-11-17 13:01:08

Hi, Looking for an underwater case for Canon video camera, possibly similar to XL2, for use in a short film being produced in South Donegal. It's needed for some shots of surfers.... Does anyone have any idea of where to source one of these? Either on very generous loan or on hire?

Maybe one of these bags would suit?

Have you considered a GoPro HD Hero or HD Hero 2 with the waterproof housing?

Cost would be a little cheaper than a case for the Canon and would certainly be a bit more versatile. Additionally you might find more uses for it afterwards!
