Vanessa c'mon, you can't do a tutorial using a GoPro Hero3! The Hero3 is a terrible camera! I can't believe you are showing this camera in your review. It was one of the worse GoPro cameras made. Hero 7 and 8 produce much better results that are at broadcast level quality. Some of the things you are showing and telling the viewers in the Hero 3, you can't do on the 7 or 8. And the 7 and 8 have much better results with color....almost eliminating the need for a red filter. You can't adjust the FOV in the Hero6, 7, or 8 once its in a housing....so that information you are saying is obsolete. Also you should put the camera on a selfie stick far away from your body, not close. The closer it is to your body, the more it shakes from your movement when diving. Adding a small float helps even more as you can let go and the camera stays in place. The reach of a stick helps create drag and its easier to create stability.... btw the Hero3 does not have stabilization. The 7 and 8 have incredible stabilization. I love your tutorials, but this one fell short due to the Hero3 you are showing and the settings you are showing that you cannot do on the latest and best GoPros.
Hi Todd, you are right :) but we just had the 3 available at this time, because the new ones where on production. But anyhow this wasn't a video on GoPro, it was about general Action Cameras. And it should demonstrate and make the user aware of different FOV on any camera or action camera and when to use the different modes. And yes sure the GoPro and Osmo Action have amazing stabilization! But I recall us mentioning this too in this episode. Anyhow - thanks for the information! We don't reccomend long selfie sticks, the best is to use a tray with handels, that ways you can also add lights, if needed or floats, etc. and it will be way more stable than with a stick. but sure you can use a small grip with a float too. There are many ways. Good to point the different ways out. Redfilters - if the colors aren't there, the camera can't record them. So if you are planning on going a littlle deeper a flip filter holder is recommendable. Of course no must, but it will increase the quality of the WB. But as we always say... just our opinion :) there is no right and wrong. But thanks for the information, we appriciate it a LOT! These kinds of discussions are very informative for others too! cheers
Hello! I'm starting to film underwater with GoPro Hero 8 (you can see the poor videos at Instagram @rafamarfilm jajajaja). I have a question: which program do you use for edition your videos? Thanks!
Hello, Thank you for the wonderful and very informative video The gopro hero 5 black let’s me go into narrow FOV only when in 1080p and in 2.7k linear ( medium FOV corrected for distortion ) is the closest to narrow Should I use that for filming or should I stick with 1080p 60 fps and narrow FOV Iam only worried about re framing / cropping in post when shooting in 1080p Looking forward to your reply. Thank you
Thanks for those amazing videos. I'm a french diver and I have an Akaso v50 pro action cam. Can you give me some links or a brand for screw on filter adapter pls? I have seen the other video on filters and the mix with light and I would definitly give it a try. Thks a lot and keep going.
Thank you for the tips. I was looking for your work online for some time and I finally figured out that reef patrol is your channel. Great work and keep going. I have questions regarding GoPro hero7 and dji osmo action. 1) which one is better based on their underwater performance( macro, wide shots, stabilisation etc)? 2) availability of accessories online? Thank you
Thanks for one more lesson Vanessa. Can you tell me where do I can buy those red and magenta circular filters with protection lens? Keep teaching us. Best Regards from Portugal.
Ive made one video with a cheap action cam, it was awful. Now I have a GoPro8, a laptop and a holiday to Egypt booked. Your videos are going to be very useful! Thanks for making them.
Thank you for making this great video! I'm a fan of your entire series. I love diving wrecks, sometimes down to 60 meters / 200 feet. At that depth would you still recommend 60/50 FPS with an action camera? There's less light with more FPS so wouldn't that decrease the video's quality? Also do you recommend the linear Field of View for shipwrecks? Distortion looks bad on wrecks but I find having a wide view helps with the tight spaces.
Okay this is very special 😯 so IF the bitrate/compression is the same with 25 or 50 you could choose 50, if no loss. BUT if you use 50 you have a higher Shutterspeed - now this will depend on you setting if manual or if camera automatkc but even in automatic the shutter speed will be higher which means less light will hit the sensor, so 25p would be better because your camera can use a slower shutter speed so brighter Image and nicer motion blur. So less noise. Also if you are kn the wreck you will move slowly so you dont need slowmotion anyhow and fast moving fish you wont have much too I assume usually they just hang around. So perhaps stick with 25p :) About the FOV... I would go narrower where it makes sense... like on top of the wreck filming, closeups or fish or any maschinery. For rooms and outside sure stick with Wide 📽😊😎💙
always shoot slow motion intentionally I think. you shouldn't always set the frame rate at 60. shutter angle is more important to final look. Always decide first what frame rate you want on final video..
Hi guys, it would be great if you would use your popularity to support the ongoing EU initiative to ban the trade with shark fins in the EU. There are two months left to get 600.000 votes.
Anyway you can do this video again with a more updated action camera? We are 10 versions ahead of the GoPro 3 now and though the concepts are the same, the tech is pretty different.
No please, no bars: it's better if you set in the project an aspect ratio more wide than 16:9. That's because the bars, are good only if you watch the video from a 16:9 screen, but from other screen (for example my telephone that is 18:9), you'll have a wrong visualization.
You are right of couse... you can make a 2:1 project as well for phones. Its just a personal preference :) and bare in mind this is a beginners series 😊 but thank you .. we will add this in later episodes too.
How do you guys deal with stray light? I very often have the issue, especially when using the red filter on the GoPro, that stray light is making the image very red and very soft. On top of that it depends on the angle towards the sun. It makes editing a nightmare. Do you know of any lens hood for action cameras to deal with this problem?
hello Vanessa, great tips! Could you suggest me a good stick for action cam underwater? the link that you have put below seem don't work (gear used) thanks!
Again a very professional and helpful video with easily understandable instructions! You always make me feel like being deeply submerged in a beautiful reef, thanks a lot 😊! But what about lights? Wouldn't it be appropriate to attach also lights on the tray in deeper water instead of a red filter even with an action camera or do you think it's overrated?
Lights is one of the next episodes :) so stay tuned ;) usually lights only make sense if they are really powerful to compete against ambient light... and if you have enough money to spend on good lights you may as well invest in a slightly better camera than an action cam. Cheap lights... forget it.. tried that been there... didnt work.. ;) for action cams best to stay in the shallows for best quality... it is a small sensor... so it will always be limited 🥴
@@ReefPatrol Using a gopro6 with a tray and two JAUNT D40 lights rated at 4200 lumens each. Other research indicates setting WB at 5000K. My dives are between 15 to 40 meters. Is this my best option or just stay with a red filter? Diving in the Bahamas
Hi Vanessa, I just started using Go Pro this year, and will need to take videos and photos underwater (river/lake) next month. What specific macro lens, magenta filters (brand), and mount tray would you recommend?
I just bought a Go Pro Hero 8 and I am going to Roatan diving this winter... I will be doing some test dives with my go pro and was wondering, what have you found works best for neutralizing your bouyancy with a go pro? Is it better to go over on your bouyancy floats or under? do you really need them for a go pro with a double handled frame? do you have recommendations for frames for a go pro? Thanks!
actually the new stabilisation of the gopro is fantastic... I doubt you will have much shake if you dive smoothly ;) otheriwse use a tray with small floats :)
Hi Vanessa! Thank you for one more great video! Couldn't wait to see your color correction video. I shoot with Sony FDR-X3000 while diving, and recently I purchased BigBlue Vl10000 which I am going to use for the first time in couple of days in Dahab, Egypt. Thank you very much for your tips - I will use them next time:) Here is my video from the last diving trip: th-cam.com/video/HdMdRCvZ5wI/w-d-xo.html

How do you get the round filter on a go pro super suit? In the UK I’m looking online and it seems I have to use another case/frame attached to a naked GoPro thus limiting how deep I can go. Any advice?
Hey! Really great video and tips! We do a lot of underwater videography and photography at our dive shop in Key Largo and found your video very useful. Thanks for sharing! :)
Keldan lights will have this out later this year. I am using their prototype. But I have heard you can use the xrite underwater if you clean it well after... but I have never tried.
Great video thank you so much for the tips! What is your advice on a camera? I’m kind of stuck between two options I can either spend 450 on a go pro 9 or spend way more and get a housing for my A7siii. I wish there was a $1200 option like a go pro made for professionals.
This is the next episode so stay tuned 😊📽😎 working on it right now! You cant add colors that arent captured :) it will never look as good as when captured in camera. Also you wont be able to change the whitebalance as much because you will run into bending and quality loss. But as said... will be the next episode
Another awesome video! 🙌🏽 I did a somewhat similar video earlier this year about shooting underwater with a gopro. Nice to get confirmation that I'm doing most things correct 😊.
Another top video with great tips. I used to have a Hero4 mounted on my rig hotshoe until it broke. So I need a new action cam. If you could choose 1 for free for unverwater filming..... Hero7 or DJI Osmo Action? I'm swaying towards DJI.
Actually from what I gather the Osmo should be better. BUT I havent tried it and I dont know how the color profiles work uw compared to Hero7. But I would assume very similar. Rocksteady should be really good.
But check the internet if there are any uw comparison videos. I also could Imagine that the gopro color could be better because they have such an experience with underwater since years. Dji hasnt been uw before. So best would be to test it :)
Awesome thank you so much!.. Would you have tips for using a Go pro in low light conditions? I'm going back to Norway to dive with the Orca in November.
Well in that case you wont be diving right? So dont use a filter. Protunes ON. Iso setting you will need to see how high you want to set the max. So do some testing before (you can do that above water too) and see with jow much noise you are ok with. Filming in 25p will give u a slower shutterspeed so more light. But 50p will give you smoother shots. So you can mix the fps depending on what you are filming. You could add 2 powerful lights too :)
Hi Vanessa the videos are great. Which compact you feel is the best in 2020 for underwater. I was in for Sony RX100 VII however, it seems the WB underwater is not the best. I shoot video 90% of the time.
Regarding the whide-screen bars, editing in an actual 18:9/2:1 or 21:9 gives people who are watching on wider screens like most of the modern sartphones an actul wider image becuase youtube does support and adjusts to these formats. If you just use fake letter boxes, people on wider screens have black bars all around which destroys the illusuin. If possible, never use fake letter boxes these days!
Thank you, really useful and easy! I am very happy that I was aware of most of these tips and I loved the idea of the black bars for cinematic effect... I am doing it for pictures sometimes, but never tried for videos! Adding sound effects BBC style is also very cool, and using music with license!!! I personally find it useful to choose the soundtrack already while editing, to match action with music! It would be great to find a competent partner like you for my projects!
ALWAYS extend your pole, if possible. the longer pole makes your footage much more stable. It makes you automatically holding your action camera more steady. you can test that on land while walking. compare the steadiness of handheld action camera shot (or even phone) with the one of a extended pole. The latter will be much more stable. NEVER use a red filter. Like mentioned, it takes away light. Make different filter for postproduction. 4 different reds (orange to magenta), for different depth, and play with the opacity will do a much better job. However, this is the lazy fast way, if you dont want to mess around too much with color-correction.
Hello. What equipment recommendations for the amateur photographer would you recommend adding to the Gopro 9? Intention for lighting, filters and camera settings. Do you have an instructional video related to my question? Thanks in advance for your reply.
Was about to buy a gopro8 because it seems to give the most saturated colours without post editing (which I would like to avoid). And record at the widest settings to see everything around me.... am I completely off? What do you think
Love your content. I just got back from a trip and have been going through many of these videos. Wish I would have watched fist haha. I feel more prepared for next time though. Thanks again
I have done some testing, and for GO-pro at least, it seams that using anything but wideangel view does not make sense. Thats due to go-pro effectivly just cropping the futage to get the slimmer view. So if you are going to pos process anyway, then keep as much information as possible, who knows perhaps you catch even more greatness
How to decide when to shoot in slow motion? I think that there are situation when slow motion is better for example when shooting fast swimming fish. However, while shooting a slower activity (for example diving thru a wreck) the slow motion video gets very boring (I took a video a video of a whale shark and even I couldn’t wait for it to finish while watching afterwards)
Thanks for this. Great. Can you recommend a simple edit programme for a novice for go pro videos and basic camcorder presentation footage? Thanks Sonia
Hi, great video, if we do not use red filter during a shooting, will it impossible to restore the original red colour simply by coulour grading ? Thanks for the info
Das Video ist echt der Hammer vor allem, da ich demnächst selbst vor habe einen Tauchfilm zu machen vom Roten Meer. Dazu hätte ich gerne gewusst, welche Farben die Farbfilter haben, die ihr für die Aufnahmen verwendet bzw vielleicht ein Produkt Beispiel für die Farbfilter mit Filtergewinde. Vielen dank schon mal vor ab. Und die Tipps sind echt klasse :)

Great advise 👍🏻🤙🏻
thx! :)
Thank you for the awesome tips .... Which websites can I find free sound effects for my videos?
Awesome thank you so much!.. Would you have tips for using a Go pro in low light conditions? I'm going back to Norway to dive with the Orca in November.
Well in that case you wont be diving right? So dont use a filter. Protunes ON. Iso setting you will need to see how high you want to set the max. So do some testing before (you can do that above water too) and see with jow much noise you are ok with.
Filming in 25p will give u a slower shutterspeed so more light. But 50p will give you smoother shots. So you can mix the fps depending on what you are filming. You could add 2 powerful lights too :)
Got it, thanks.. love your work!
Hi Vanessa the videos are great. Which compact you feel is the best in 2020 for underwater. I was in for Sony RX100 VII however, it seems the WB underwater is not the best. I shoot video 90% of the time.
Regarding the whide-screen bars, editing in an actual 18:9/2:1 or 21:9 gives people who are watching on wider screens like most of the modern sartphones an actul wider image becuase youtube does support and adjusts to these formats. If you just use fake letter boxes, people on wider screens have black bars all around which destroys the illusuin. If possible, never use fake letter boxes these days!
Thank you, really useful and easy!
I am very happy that I was aware of most of these tips and I loved the idea of the black bars for cinematic effect... I am doing it for pictures sometimes, but never tried for videos!
Adding sound effects BBC style is also very cool, and using music with license!!!
I personally find it useful to choose the soundtrack already while editing, to match action with music!
It would be great to find a competent partner like you for my projects!
ALWAYS extend your pole, if possible. the longer pole makes your footage much more stable. It makes you automatically holding your action camera more steady. you can test that on land while walking. compare the steadiness of handheld action camera shot (or even phone) with the one of a extended pole. The latter will be much more stable.
NEVER use a red filter. Like mentioned, it takes away light. Make different filter for postproduction. 4 different reds (orange to magenta), for different depth, and play with the opacity will do a much better job. However, this is the lazy fast way, if you dont want to mess around too much with color-correction.
Just recently discovered your channel and I LOVE the Amazing footage and helpful tips. I only started to film underwater any tips for Sony A7Rii?
Redfilter!!!! Sonys are not always good with Whitebalance ;) so that would be the most important 😎📽
And check out the buoyancy episode it is one of the first videos in this playlist.
Reef Patrol thank you for your advice. Definitely I will try the filter
Reef Patrol for sure the buoyancy matters I know from taking photos.
@@PaulLungu1 perfect :)
Great tips, thanks a lot
Changing field of view to narrow isn't just a digital cropping? Wouldn't it make more sense to do it during the post processing (editing the video)?
Hello. What equipment recommendations for the amateur photographer would you recommend adding to the Gopro 9? Intention for lighting, filters and camera settings.
Do you have an instructional video related to my question?
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Very helpful information. Looking forward to improving my videos. Thank you!
Was about to buy a gopro8 because it seems to give the most saturated colours without post editing (which I would like to avoid). And record at the widest settings to see everything around me.... am I completely off? What do you think
Love your content. I just got back from a trip and have been going through many of these videos. Wish I would have watched fist haha. I feel more prepared for next time though. Thanks again
Excelent tips! Thanks for sharing ;)
welcome!
Please make one about yellow filter at a night dive , how and when tu use it PLEASE I BEG YOU HAHAHAHHA
I have done some testing, and for GO-pro at least, it seams that using anything but wideangel view does not make sense. Thats due to go-pro effectivly just cropping the futage to get the slimmer view. So if you are going to pos process anyway, then keep as much information as possible, who knows perhaps you catch even more greatness
Hi, what is your recommendation for WB setting in an action camera?
depends on the action cam ;)
How to decide when to shoot in slow motion?
I think that there are situation when slow motion is better for example when shooting fast swimming fish.
However, while shooting a slower activity (for example diving thru a wreck) the slow motion video gets very boring (I took a video a video of a whale shark and even I couldn’t wait for it to finish while watching afterwards)
Thanks for this. Great. Can you recommend a simple edit programme for a novice for go pro videos and basic camcorder presentation footage? Thanks Sonia
Thank you thank you thank! And you have my subscription🤙🔥🦈
Thanks for this tutorial.. very helpful
thanks for providing this tips very useful!
happy to help!
What setting would you use for white balance with gopro8? Bear in mind that with gopro8 you cannot do manual balance under water.
Great!!! Thanks for this interesting video
Thank you so much for such valuable tips 😍
welcome! :)
Super Vanessa 👍🏻 Outtakes sind immer cool am Schluss
Danke 😍
Hi, great video, if we do not use red filter during a shooting, will it impossible to restore the original red colour simply by coulour grading ? Thanks for the info
Das Video ist echt der Hammer vor allem, da ich demnächst selbst vor habe einen Tauchfilm zu machen vom Roten Meer. Dazu hätte ich gerne gewusst, welche Farben die Farbfilter haben, die ihr für die Aufnahmen verwendet bzw vielleicht ein Produkt Beispiel für die Farbfilter mit Filtergewinde.
Vielen dank schon mal vor ab. Und die Tipps sind echt klasse :)
