Hey all,
I just got a Canon SX 200 IS and will be picking up an ikelike housing and AF35 strobe for it. I'm considering getting an Ikelite Pro-v8 video light to use as a focus light and also for those times when I want to take advantage of the SX200's HD video capabilities. My main focus is photography, not videography but I figured I'd try and kill two birds with one stone here. Being fairly inexperienced in u/w photography I'm not sure if the V8 would be way overkill as a focus light. Any advice you more experienced photographers can impart on me would be appreciated.
