Underwater filimg is something that can be quite fun doing and equally fun watching. Normally, unwieldy equipment claims your hands and relinquishes you to nothing more than “the video guy” while your friends and colleagues get to swim around and have all sorts of hand assisted fun. Stop losing sleep over your less than stellar underwater adventures as Liquid Image’s UDCM310 will free up your hands for more interesting things. Building upon the previous model, the UDCM310 features a 5 megapixel CMOS sensor that will allow the wearer/video guy to capture video at 30fps at 720 x 480 resolution. All of the digitized life events are taken care of by either the paltry 16MB of internal memory or a removable SD card. A notable plus — the goggles will hook up to any computer rather nicely as no software is needed. Sweet! The sale price for such convenience and behind the scenes flipper action comes in at 16,800 Yen (roughly $180.72 USD). Just remember to not go any deeper than 10 m…or else the effects of water pressure on gadgets will make itself very known.
