Has anyone used the JVC Picsio compact HD camera? Curious how well it does underwater. I have read mixed reviews on SB. Ikelite is marketing them bundled with a housing and light for a reasonable price. Thoughts anyone??

No personal experience yet, but I just made the purchase. I was able to get a refurbished Picsio for <$100 from Amazon.

I have previously had a Stingray housing/lights with both a Sony Hi8 and then Dig8. I wanted to enter the HD world (finally) but couldn't bear to (once again) spend several thousand bucks. The whole deal this time is under $1,000.

I am going back to Bonaire at the end of April and will post a review of the cam/housing after that.
