I bought my GoPro this summer and love it. It's not the newest version that came out a few months ago, but the one previous.

I had wanted to use it for both in tank shots and for trips. Unfortunately, underwater, their focus is poor, so close up shots in tank are out and when I took it snorkeling in Mexico underwater shots were not very crisp either. That said, in open air, they are amazing! Crisp HD video. I enjoyed transition shots, going from air to under water was really cool.
These cameras are built tough and take excellent pictures and video for such a compact device, but underwater, their clarity is lacking.
