SeaLife Micro 2.0
Price: $549
Jon WhittleThis underwater camera is completely sealed, meaning it won't leak due to a faulty o-ring.
Why worry about flooding your camera when you can shoot with the completely sealed and waterproof SeaLife Micro 2.0, depth-rated to 200 feet? The 64-gigabyte version allows you to capture more than 25,000 16-megapixel still images and store more than 12 hours of 1080p HD video. It boasts an ultra-wide 130-degree fisheye multicoated lens and built-in digital color-correction sensors.
Cressi Drake Dive Computer
Price: $449.95
Jon WhittleThis dive computer is great for freedivers and scuba divers alike.
This watch-style computer is designed specifically for freedivers — and it has everything they need in a DC. The Cressi Drake immediately begins tracking your surface interval when you return to the surface, and begins counting down to when you can safely dive again. Other features include its ability to track current and maximum depth of the dive, dive time in minutes and seconds, and maximum depth and time for the day.
Brytor Reach Dive Light
Price: $349.99 with GoPro mount; $314.99 for Reach only | Bebrytor.com
Jon WhittleThis dive light is great for capturing video in low-light situations.
After taking the Brytor Reach Dive Light into the water, we’re impressed by its 800-lumen output capable of capturing video in low-light or even pitch-black environments. It’s on a rugged, 38-inch-long anodized-aluminum shaft that’s equipped with an easy on/off switch, strobe and GoPro mount. In a little innovative twist, remove your GoPro and use it as a lighted tickle stick for hunting lobsters.
