Underwater pond camera

[Stavfish]

Hey guys. Looking to install an underwater camera or two in my outdoor pond .... Looking for day color and nighttime infra red / black and white viewing capabilities. I want this to be permanently affixed underwater and be able to view ls video on a screen and also over the Internet. Any suggestion ps for a good brand and where to purchase? Thanks in advance.

Primes Scuba have best quality The HERO3 under water camera Silver Edition boasts the same high performance specs as the famous HD HERO2 camera it replaces, yet it has built-in Wi-Fi and is 30% smaller and 25% lighter.

I'm just wondering how well something like the GoPro's would work for the OP's situation, since you would be leaving it on for A) 24 hours a day / 7 Days a week and B) how would you keep the camera charged? since i'm guessing you can't charge it while its underwater...

The rest i guess could work with the Wifi settings, where you could probably set it up to your home computer network somehow so you could view the fish at any time through the web?

Gopro wont work. It cant be used as a "webcam". Plus the battery is good for about an hour and a half.

The wifi functionality of the gopro is only for its remote as far as I know. You cant stream what you're filming over wifi for example.

I started a similar post today, I see you didn't get any responses. Did you find something you could use?

Some of the Koi Camera searches I did found products that were no longer sold. Some Security Video camera's have a "water Resistance" rating that should allow 1ft of depth and continous 7x24 operation, but I haven't found anyone who is actively using one and clearly indicating what brand and model it is....

It's going to be really hard/expensive to find a truly aquatic surveillance(essentially) camera. But I'm interested in the responses as I think it would be neat myself.
