Mister,

Is that camera (GoPro) water proof and if so to how much depth

I live to scuba and need a better camera to dive wrecks with. Average of a 100 feet or 30 meters.

Is this camera rated for that???

Did you get any footage of the road between Tyalgum and Murwillumbah? That was a cool ride. BTW How did the GS500 ride you did the other weekend go?

Quote from the Go Pro site -

Can I use HD HERO2 for diving?

    Yes, the camera housing is rated waterproof down to 197' ft (60m), and our head strap mount is a great way to wear the camera on your forehead, just above your diving mask. Please note that due to the curved lens of the HD HERO2 (and the original HD HERO) waterproof housing you will notice a slight loss of sharpness with underwater images. This is because the HD HERO2's waterhousing glass lens is optimized for maximum field of view and sharpness above water while maintaining the smallest possible size. Stay tuned for new underwater-specific products that will provide maximum sharpness underwater. Subscribe to be notified about new product releases.

So beautiful, but you're driving on the wrong side of the road.  ;)

Really soothed my headache.
