I have a complete professional underwater video camera setup to sell - including camera, housing, ports and accessories. The camera is presently in South Africa, but will be bringing it back to the US (Connecticut area) on 12th of April if anyone is interested in having a first hand look.

Canon XF100 video camera - little brother to the XF300, BBC approved for broadcast video work.
The XF100 uses same codec etc, and records full HD at 50mb/s at 4:2:2 color depth - technically still broadcast spec. More details here:
Canon XF100 HD Professional Camcorder

Also included are the Canon wide and tele lens attachments, extra large battery + charger, mic adapters etc for the XF100.

The matching underwater housing is made by BS Kinetics, called a Takla Makan.
Housing allows electronic access to all camera functions and is made of carbon, so nice and light for travelling with. Upgraded to OLED monitor on the back.
