Our internet in Caymans is slow so I don't usually try new things out there, plus the night dive was calling me 
In the past I have also called down to Cathy Church Photo shop on Grand Cayman. They are super helpful for advice on what to buy.
Just tracked down my son's GoPro bin...the red filter we are using now is a Backscatter Flip 3. I like it much better. Our first one was the Snake River Prototyping Dome...didn't like it as much. Plus the Backscatter just flips on and off without having to put it into your BCD pocket, making it easier to take off the red filter for your shallow safety stop
We love our GoPro Hero3. Had the 2 and it didn't work that well, kept freezing up. So we returned it on warranty and upgraded to the 3 halfway through our last dive trip in Cayman...My son uses his Hero3 for fishing, we use it for wake surfing (attach it to the back of our boat and put on a floaty back), etc. It's awesome! The GoPro has even made it into our tank (despite the fact that it's just rock right now as we are new to the hobby). I swear if my son could fit, he would put on his dive gear and be in that tank!
I am jelly of your dive trip, we have to wait a little longer |
I just looked up this filter. This thing is amazing! Thanks!
PS, their video has convinced me to get the GoPro for my trip. I'll just double check that this works with the new smaller Hero3+
