Abstract
The apparatus for stabilizing a camera when used in an underwater environment comprises a hand grab having a flat top surface, the flat top surface of the hand grab slidably engaging a pair of elongate parallel rods at a proximal end of the rods, the rods further slidably engaging, at a distal end thereof, a platform resting upon the rods which engages a camera base, and a fin of predetermined configuration, the fin being slidably engaged upon the rods at a position between the proximal and distal ends thereof, the structures being movable along the length of the rods to establish a stabilization of the camera as a user is moving through water, or as water is moving past the camera. Further, at least one distally directed light source is provided suitably engaged to or provided on an undersurface of the fin.
