What Camera Do You Use?

I guess I can try again (with more sleeves) and not take all the air out.

Quick follow up...

I've been out with the drycase about 5 times now, and I like it lots. The touch screen works fine as long as your hands aren't ice cold and wet (then it works mostly but requires a little more effort). I suck out all the air. The speaker is a bit muffled of course (you can leave a little extra air and it works almost full volume) but still good enough in the vacuum to make calls. Pics and video (incl underwater) have worked great. I am using a neck strap and tuck it into my waders when not in use (mainly to keep those darn sabiki hooks and what not from puncturing it). The material used is better than most similar "pack" cases and I think it will last quite a while. I have no fear of leakage with this unit. Anyway, two thumbs up for the drycase - if you have a non-rolling cursor (blackberry) smartphone and want to use that for the camera its the way to go.

The coolest thing with this so far has been out there fishing and being able to pull up the LJ cam and see what is in store for landing

i would say, that the Go Pro would be a better choice, not only does it take pic but record in HD

I've had a Go Pro HD for a couple years, its pretty good for what it does, action cam stuff. But the fisheye lense, lack of decent audio, and terrible low-light quality make it a one trick pony. Not very practical for taking normal pictures or non helmet-cam type video. On the plus side it does have the cool burst photo feature and the overall video quality is excellent. For me I gotta have both.
