Has anyone actually seen any footage from a vee cam yet? Looking to get one but it all seems a bit closed shop at the moment

There was some at the last dive show. It looked pretty decent, but I think there are delays in manufacturing so I'm not sure when it's going to be ready now.

I only saw the footage they were showing at the dive show but it was enough for mark2 to put his name down...
check this thread
vee cam

I don't believe anyone has got one yet or it would be plastered on the end of here.
I asked mark a couple of weeks ago and he was going to ring them yet again.

cheers Steven

has anyone put one of these cameras in an old torch housing and tried it on a dive? It won't be award winning videography, but just interested in the results underwater.....

I would be very wary of this device. There are very sound reasons why a "camera in the hand" seems to be the preferred option, whether video or still.

It may do in tough exploratory situations but that's about the only useful scenario that I can think of.

Thats mostly what I want it for, I have a few undived wrecks coming up and you just never know what hazards will be on them net etc etc. So I would like a camera that gives me some footageto help with identification or incase I have missed anything but not something that I have to hold or keep buggering about with every twenty seconds.
The only worry I have with this product is if it will give decent enough picture in the 90-120m depth bracket.

Thats exactly what a couple of offshore dive companies do... buy a cheap ($100) pencil camera and slide it into a cheap ($30) Pelican torch with electrical penetrator through the back. Works great even for heavy commercial use. For scuba use you obviously need a housed recording device on your person too. Summat like this...
