Hello, What would you recommend for a simple setup for shooting swimming underwater in a pool. I guess I would need a camera (maybe GoPro) with wifi so that I can see what I'm shooting when I submerge it and a stick to hold the camera? I don't even have a digital camera (except the one on my phone) cause I'm really not into the whole shooting thing, but I would love to be able to shoot myself and others to analyze our swimming technique. Nothing fancy - just something that has a clear enough picture to analyze our basic technique - we have no goals for Tokyo 2020, so to speak :)

  • So, I bought a cheap GoPro knockoff from Amazon that has a bunch of attachments and some sticky mounts, and a waterproof case. I put one sticky mount on a leftover bathroom tile I had. It sinks nicely and is very stable. I put one of the clamp mounts on a broom handle. Haven't gotten to use this much because obviously it requires another videographer to follow you but it works pretty well. Probably spent 80 bucks total.
