very nice thanks Willo, at $50 i'll definitely be getting one, did it come with a housing for underwater use as standard? did you have it on a pole when it was looking under the boat?

thanks.

There is also a issue with lens fogging up on a hot day in the water proof houseing...But this is not confined to the Gear2Go cam, all have this problen including the Go Pro ans also have the problen with my sony cam in a big water proof housing
There is some product available to put inside the case to stop it..so the story goes ..not sure what it is called yet...But on Hot days keep an eye on the lens fogging caused by humidity

[Nicko_Cairns]

there's some similar products in the scuba diving scene but don't know if they're worth it. best thing for a scuba mask is a bit of spit rubbed around the inside, not very practical for camera housing though, i think if you had the case open until you went to use it that might help as the humidity couldn't build up, otherwise submerge the case (closed obviously), the bring it back up, wipe the inside with a cloth, insert the camera and try that... lmk how you go.

There is stuff called 'cat crap' that we use for motor bike helmet visors to stop fogging up. It works a treat and I have used it to stop the sunnies fogging up when using a buff on hot days.

I can't find them on the Kmart online store. Any idea if there available at all Kmart stores Australia wide? And also what section of the store are they in?

Cheers, Mitch

they would be Mitch, in the bit with the cameras etc in one of the glass cabinets (well they were here).
