What camera to buy, Any Recommendations ?

[papafishr]

I've been considering it for a while now and I think I'm ready to pick up an under water camera. Wondering if anyone has any thoughts or comments in regards to
what I should be looking for.

Would like to stay between 250 - 300$ complete.

Looking for any recommendations or advice on brands to consider as well as features .

We usually fish Simcoe.

Are the led lights any good ? Screen size recommendation,, recording options etc.

Ive so far seen the Eyoyo and Bob brands on Amazon which come with a 7 inch screen. The reviews that Ive read online for the above mentioned brands have been alright,,, however,, Im not so sure that I beleve everything I read when it comes to onine shopping.


Thanks in advance, any advice is appreciated !

The underwater cameras are great you getvwhat you pay for. When using the LED lights on camera it really uses a lot more battery power. Good luck and tight lines.

I'm considering the same thing so what I do is read customer reviews or ten best lists etc. Once I get an idea what each one does then you can make a decision. The vex. camera and flasher combo looks good and has great features. Marcum I think has a similar option both would be above your budget but buying quality that lasts is worth the investment. I've seen cheaper B/W units that were basically useless, so a waste of money. Good luck

AKASO 7000....you can look at comparisons between it and hero gopro.....the Akaso is a knockoff of the gopro and all the gopro stuff fits it. The Akaso does 4k and comes with many mounting equipment that is all extra on others.....The price is hard to beat $89 on Amazon.....you can't go wrong for that kind of money....it also comes with a spare battery and underwater case.....good luck


As a photographer....I am amazed at the quality of pictures and videos this cam takes.
