The great little camera is really perfect for surf shots. It'll take decent stills but better than that it'll take TV quality video and it's completely waterproof. Strap it to your wrist and shot yourself or your mates in the water, back home you can upload it to your PC or just plug it straight into the TV. Of course you can also then share your clips on Magicseaweed.com or Youtube.
The camera is tough, tiny and the designers have really understood what surfers will want to do with it. Left turned on the camera will last a good three hour session with just one button to press to record the action...
