I'm using a Canon S95 with Canon WP-DC38 underwater housing primarily for HD video. I'd like to invest in some underwater video lights for night dives, good shots in small caves etc. I'm looking for something pretty low end but that will have the best results with my setup. Any advice? Anyone got a similar set-up who can share some sample video? I've searched around for a while on Youtube and in Forums but can't find any good comparisons. So far the 3 options I've been looking at are Ikelite Pro-V8, Inon Le550w and Light & Motion Photo 800.
Plus one for light & motion...
Cheers Pete
So far the 3 options I've been looking at are Ikelite Pro-V8, Inon Le550w and Light & Motion Photo 800.
IMHO the best option now is the Light & Motion Sola 1200. You can find them at about 650$ each.
They are small, lightweight, self contained with a good beam without hot spots.
Given the light is never enough, right now there is a new product: Sola 2000 (2000 Lumen): Virtually 800 lumen more than Sola 1200 with the same housing.
Here in Italy they were just distributed and they are a little bit expensive (815 euro versus the 650 euro of the Sola 1200).
