Best camera for filming underwater?

underwater camera 7d image

Clear Blue

I shot a music video completely underwater about 8 months ago that turned out amazing! (you can view it here: http://www.lx-goods.com/videos/blorr_seven_sisters/). We shot it entirely on one canon 7D camera with an underwater housing unit that was costly to rent. I want to do some inexpensive photography underwater for a new project and wondered if anyone has a decent and inexpensive option for shooting underwater?

Answer
I have heard good things about the Canon D10 http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/605229-REG/Canon_3508B001_PowerShot_D10_Digital_Camera.html

If I had the money though (~$6,000-$8,000), I would go with a DSLR underwater case/lens port/lighting system like you rented. That's one of the reasons I haven't taken up scuba diving....I would want to take my camera with me and I can't afford the shell.

Witch water housing is recommended for a canon 7d for surf and underwater model photography?

Answer
You might want to check out the Ewa-Marine website. They make dive housings and rain capes for most camera brands.
