Ditch the Go Pros. Go with an Intova Sport HDII or other compact durable camera brand made for underwater use. Sub $200 with only small decrease in video/photo quality. Go Pros were never really designed for underwater use and cost the $$$$$$$ to upgrade them up to it. Realistically, once you spend $600+ (likely far more...) on a Go Pro you could have bought a nicer digital camera+housing at the same price for faaaaar better quality pictures, which you can also later add lenses to, strobes, video lights...

However, I have not followed any Go Pro updates so perhaps the newer ones fair better?
