normal, HD is only 120 degree... mine is 170... but HD is superb quality + it has internal researchable batteries with better battery life.

I know... I'm split between the two for those reasons...

I loved that picture tho - I think I'll order the normal having seen that - the videos are smaller for uploading to Youtube too. Thanks.

I had a similar encounter two weeks ago surfing down the South coast of NSW. I was waiting to catch my wave and just metres away I saw a huge (black) fin sticking out of the water. then 4 more fins but it was cool as they were just dolphins. They look much bigger up close were jet black rather than grey like you would expect. I nearly shit myself!
