I-torch Mini 750 Lumen Video Light

The second video light they have released is a mini light (seriously very small) with a powerful 80 deg beam and 750 Lumens. Retail price is around 350$ and this light is a perfect choice for divers that travel a lot and do a lot of Macro work.

Big Blue - Go Pro Package

GoPro are stealing the show this year and you can find their products in accessories in almost every booth. From lights to mounts. The picture above is a compact lighting package by Big Blue aimed at the go pro camera. Small compact and right to the point.
