We haven't been able to make the camera overheat yet in that housing, but we've been diving in cold water and have likely not been filming long enough at 4K/60p to make it happen. We'll have to do an overheating test!

definitely! Reach out to us at sales@bluewaterphotostore.com and we'll get you set up with the right filters :)

Of course! We'll do that on our next video :)

If you are doing sunball shots or quick action shots of animals like sea lions, it's certainly nicer to be able to shoot at 1/250. For most of my photography I could get away with 1/160 and ISO 100 with my lens stopped all the way down. But there are going to be situations where it's definitely nice to have the extra half a stop. Is it worth the difference in price and size? It's kind of up to you as a photographer!

Happy we could help!! Let us know how it goes :)

We'll keep that in mind for the next one thanks!

Great idea! We'll do that for the next one :) That difference will also depend on the depth and the amount of ambient light

@@BluewaterPhotoStore Very true. Several times Im getting close to the coral and cant tell if my video light is even on...

Unfortunately Sea & Sea doesn't make a housing for the A7C R, but Ikelite and Nauticam do: www.bluewaterphotostore.com/sony-a7cr-underwater-housing

@@BluewaterPhotoStore Thank you for your response, by comparing different housing options for Sony A7R5 which is more durable and value for money option , in your opinion.. thanks in advance :)

I used both! some of the photos were taken with one and some were taken with two :)

Two will give you more ability to for creative photography and control over your lighting. One will be powerful enough to light a scene but there's less you can do with it. If budget is a concern, I would recommend getting two strobes with a lower guide number than one strobe with a high guide number. I hope this helps! Feel free to reach out to us at sales@bluewaterphotostore.com if you need a recommendation

We'll need a few more details like chest, waist, and hips - but we're happy to size you! Please reach out to scuba@bluewaterphotostore.com :)

We often find that the red light is more visible than the white light!

It's a fantastic strobe for that! You should have more than enough power :)

keine Ursache

thanks!

Sorry about the timing but we hope you're enjoying your nauticam!

@@BluewaterPhotoStore Me and all my floats are enjoying it! :D I wonder if you're allowed to carry the nauticam housing inside a plane though, normally heavy objects aren't permitted, and it really scares me to carry it with me.

@@hinenik Sometimes I tell the airlines that my camera system is valuable if they ever object and I've always been let on with it :)

@@BluewaterPhotoStore Let's hope it works with the European airlines 😆!

It's a better beam than both strobes!

@@linek1234 it doesnt matter, how you stand until guide 20 and 33 strobes? and suddenly made we have 44 guide and it price is 1200 fuck that, I still good with A.8 and guide 33, and even daytime under sun light, not even use over 20 for battery discharge. Have no idea how different your macro and my macro all macro pictures are have only snoot solution not stupid $1200 44 guide strobe.

we have not! It sounds like a lens we need to consider :)

Glad you liked it! To answer your questions: 1. I think it would be a great wide lens for pelagic species! It would be a bit softer in the corners than a fisheye or the 16-35mm but in pelagic water you wouldn't notice. 2. Our video footage came out great! We didn't notice any major focus breathing. It's actually pretty amazing. So we would totally recommend it for video. Ikelite published some additional footage that we took here: th-cam.com/video/OjuZ0goXHBo/w-d-xo.html I do honestly feel like this lens could meet your needs. We have it for sale here: www.bluewaterphotostore.com/laowa-10mm-f-2-8-zero-d-ff-lens/ Feel free to reach out to us at sales@bluewaterphotostore.com if you need help getting set up.

Good question! That's a tough one. Probably autofocus continuous with a wide area AF - but not autofocus tracking if it's very low light.

It depends! If you have the Sea & Sea housing, the TTL will be pretty accurate. But if you don't want a TTL flash trigger, manual mode is easy with the strobes. You just move the power dial. If you are shooting quick subjects, TTL is a great option

We were using the Weefine 3500 kit :) Here is a link: www.bluewaterphotostore.com/weefine-set-3500-underwater-video-light-kit/

That's a good question! I would recommend the ZV-E1... the full frame sensor is incredible at higher ISOs with much less noise. Please feel free to sales@bluewaterphotostore.com - we would be happy to help you out with lens options.

yes indeed!

Although the larger sensor of the R8 is better for low light situations, the A6700 should still perform well enough in most low-light situations. Besides that it has quite a few features for video that the R8 doesn't. In-body Image stabilization, better battery life, higher mbps. Not to mention, it's smaller size will be great for a beginner. The housing in the video is really quite compact!

@@BluewaterPhotoStore Thank you so much, that is really helpful information!

Thank you for the feedback. There are certainly a range of housings with different features and different prices that reflect those features! It sound like you are ready to invest in something that offers more premium features!

Thanks for the clarification!

I seldom have issues with overheating, even in warm water. 20 minutes of continuous recording would do it but 20 minutes of shorter clips spaced out over a dive is fine.

@@BluewaterPhotoStore thank you!

What kind of housing do you have, Erik?

GREAT question! I should have mentioned that in the video. The A6700 is less than half the price of the A7C R. So in many ways, it is just as good when it comes to value for money. They are both about the same size, so if you have an extra $1700 to spend, the A7C R would be worth considering over the A6700. The A7C R performs better in low light when it comes to autofocus and the 61 megapixel full frame sensor is another level of image quality. I hope that helps! Always happy to continue the conversation - feel free to email us at sales@bluewaterphotostore.com

so small!

@@BluewaterPhotoStore perfect for travel :)

We'll take that into consideration! We value your input. What Suunto computer are you using that you'd recommend?

@@BluewaterPhotoStore I am still using the D9 but I have played with the D5 and the Eon that seem great. Maybe Suunto isn't at the innovation stage they once were and everyone has caught up but they have always been very solid for me. I do agree the Shearwater stuff is fantastic.

@@sdfaulk01 That's definitely helpful feedback! we'll certainly take it into consideration. Thanks!

Glad we can help!

I just spoke with ikelite in regard to this and they said it will work with the m16 port on the side of your housing. You may need a right angle adapter inside though because it's a tight fit.

@@BluewaterPhotoStore thanx so much. doesn't it comes already with the hdmi right angle adapter like it shows on the video at the 4:05 min mark?

@@sergiollag1 Correct! It's pretty low profile, so it should work perfectly. Let us know if you would like us to send a quote!

@@sergiollag1 Correct!
