I have and have used the hero3 which I'm sure is not as nice as the current models. I mounted it to my snorkeling mask on a night dive in Hawaii 3 years ago while viewing the manta rays feeding on plankton, came out awesome but definitely picked up all the muffled sounds of people hooting and hollering, and the sound of the camera entering and exiting the water envelop is obnoxious but very good video quality. In this case there was a lot of light. They use a sealed light box anchored to the ocean floor about the size of a refridgerator.

I've also used it from the surf in false dawn conditions and sunrise/set mounted on my chest. The video is grainy but the top water action was cool enough to want to watch again.
