Very cool. I took still pictures of squid in the Cayman's, got home and thought... "did I really see that?". I like seeing the video clip. Thanks!

Thank you for the squids - they are one of my favorite sea creatures. I admit that I'm more interested in invertebrates than fish in general.

They remind me of sentries guarding their territory.
Thanks again!

I admire your steady hand and ability to zoom in and keep it centered on something that small. Impressive.

I really wish the quality were a little better. The original video is much clearer...but hey...I'm impressed that a little point & shoot can even get video at all...esp underwater!
Thanks!

Neat video. We saw a large number of them last July at Jumbie.

Thanks so much for posting this...I love squid too! They're so watchful and calm, and I love how they hang out in a long row.
I didn't see any this past trip but was hoping to, so it's great to see this video!
Some squid photos from our '06 trip:
