To answer:

Correct!

Correct!
- "Who's that looking at 24'26" ?"
That's an octopus.
- "Instant Replay (scene repeated) with
skate-ray on sandy bottom at 6'45" , repeated at 7'00" ?"
Jus a little stylistic device!

Hello, fantastic video! Did you use both lights I-torch and Schulz during the whole video? How is the comparison of both? Because I am thinking of purchasing Schulz as a video mount! And did you do any post-processing on the video?

Excuse me for the late reply.
Meanwhile I only use the i-Torches. The Schultz is a very good lamp for regular diving but (in my opinion) not a good video lamp: Due to the angle of the beam and the angle the go pro as well as the aperture of the go pro, you easily get only a small area that ist illuminated and every else is totally dark (see also my Video "Diving with han inc from 4:53). But I have to admit that the results are better in the bright ocean. But consider the weight differences.
I think, the i-Torches are a very good choice for filming with Go Pro but even with bright light you have to be pretty close to the object to see any effect. The majority of shots are done without these lights. Lights are mostly helpful when you film makro and under bad circumstances (eg. when you dive close to a drop-off).
For the Post-processing: Yes, theres a lot of post-processing to do. With Sony Vegas or Movie Studio, the most important is to use "Levels" and White Balance.
In my opinion, there are the following points that are most important:
- Learn to dive with neutral buoyancy. You have to fight for your images: Get close to the objects, don't wait for film something incidently. The challenge is to make it look ist as "passive" as possible. For example, consider my Palau video. It looks that the Manta (17:32) would swim straight to me. In fact, I had to swim close to his pathway. Same with the fish swarm at 6:37.
- It is pretty hard to film steady with a Go Pro, especially under water and all the current shaking you. Use a special mount like the V-Tray or Snake River Prototypings Dive Tray to improve the results and nothing like to Go Pro pole or something.
- Everytime use a good red filter. To my opinion, the SRP Blurfix and the Backscatter Flip 3.1 "Dive" are equal, but the Backscatter is more practical. In Hurghada I used the SRP, in Palau I used the Backscatter.
- Everytime use RAW (Protune)
- Everytime use 30 fps. More is useless: The image will get grainy and most movements of your objects are pretty slow.
- Best settings IMHO: 1080, 30 fps, Medium-Angle, Protune. White-Balance: Auto.
what is that reef called at 20:02? That wall? Great Video!!
The unusual black-and-white octopus enters at 24' 37".
Who's that looking at 24' 22" ??
gradenigo3 It is a Grouper ("Zackenbarsch").
