Sealife Mini Ii Underwater Sports Camera

The SeaLife AquaPod Mini is the best solution for extreme sports, hobbies and concerts. It is the ideal partner to take pictures and shoot video underwater. Easy to use, it works beautifully underwater.

I need this product in my sealife underwater camera

This is my first experience with an underwater camera. I am glad I chose SeaLife. Oh I got the camera in the mail the morning that I left for about an hour and played around with the various controls while I was on the airplane. This camera is incredibly user-friendly and takes terrific pictures. Most of my diving on this trip was between 30 and 60 feet. Using the "Dive" mode, the automatic filtering system for correct in the colors worked remarkably well. In fact, when I used an external light in dive mode, the pictures were not as good. (There is a separate mode for "external light.") I highly recommend this camera, especially if you are a novice like me.

Historically, SeaLife has made products more for the diver getting an entry into underwater photography.  However, more recently they are providing more upscale products for the experienced photographer/videographer. The SeaDragon 2500 is an excellent product.  I have over 500 dives in my log and have used their light for more than 400 of them.   The light has traveled all over the world and been banged around on boats, dropped on concrete, etc.  To quote an old phrase...It takes a lickin and keeps on tickin!! Ive had only one issue with a spare battery and when I contacted customer service they immediately sent me an RMA for returning it. To the commenter Roger who gave one star and then modified his review later when he got satisfaction from customer service.  Its a shame you slammed a perfectly good product that indeed had a flaw but the company stood behind their product.   Although I have thousands of dollars in high-end underwater gear, Sea Life is definitely a well made product and you can work with the company to get satisfaction.  Thats more than you can say about a lot of companies these days!

Sealife has an adapter for everything. We love Sealife products. WE have their underwater cameras, the 2000 and 2500 lum lights and adapters. Very reliable and durable equipment.

I'm a beginner photographer but I really like trying to capture small things and the stock lens on my Sealife Micro HD+ wouldn't go close enough. This lens sort of pops on top of the existing one and is easy to put on underwater, even with 7mm gloves on. Initially I planned on not messing with it underwater, but I had to as an air bubble ended up trapped between the regular lens and this one. I was happy with the lens, and was able to get some pictures I was happy with after one dive, two of which are shown here.

This my second SeaLife AquaPod. The first was the larger version which I felt was a little to big. The AquaPod Mini is perfect for use with the GoPro. Both sizes are well made and resist salt water damage (be sure to rinse with fresh water after exposure to salt water). I use the Mini in and out of the water, in fact I feel it is indispensable!

As a sports photographer, I added this to my pair of Canon 7D Mark II's, which are very good cameras for sports too. While not getting the extra 1.6x crop reach, the 1DX2 is a supreme performer in low light with high ISO. The 14 fps is an added bonus, but importantly the larger buffer for continuous shooting up to 170 RAW frames, which I would never do. Yes, a pricey camera, but the camera is made for a long term investment for covering sports. Eventually, will add another 1DX2 to my bag. This is a camera no professional sports photographer should be without.

I use it when I run camera for sports. No matter where you are or what you do, there's a good chance you could use a Mini Max. Mini Max is a multi-purpose telescoping stool, that's easy to fold, easy to carry and easy to adjust to both a child and adult's body weight. From electricians to musicians, from hikers to birdwatchers, and from public transportation commuters to people stuck in long lines anywhere...

As a sports photographer, I prefer to snap photos from a low perspective giving my subjects a towering height. Hand-holding a camera near the ground or floor can be a challenge, so I bought this Manfrotto PIXI Mini Tripod from B&H. For basketball, I sit near the lane at the baseline; I set my 1DX on the mini tripod next to me, adjusted the perspective I wanted from the floor, and preset my camera settings along with a wireless remote trigger. Using a second camera with a 70-200mm for close-ups, then remotely fire the floor camera as the players shoot to the hoop. Make a world of difference! The Manfrotto mini-tripod will have many other tabletop photo opportunities.
