    What is your favorite trick for getting stunning macro shots underwater?

    • @secretsofthelake1966

      refocusing the lens on an action camera with a narrower field of view lens (90 degree). Still not a perfect macro but a good close-up can be achieved: th-cam.com/video/rBWDJaA43AE/w-d-xo.html

      nice shot, I like it. It's just a shame when the fish come to close to the camera and get out of focus.

      @@MatthiasLebo It has some limitations and the DOF is surprisingly narrow despite the small sensor. The focus is fixed, so it cannot follow the subject, but the camera is below 200 Euro, so it's not that bad

    Thanks for having me! I didn't give my top secret top, but I will now.... The secret is to film a critter that is so cool, that if its bad quality video, no one notices.

    • @MatthiasLebo
      @MatthiasLebo  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Love it! And kinda sad we didn't include it in the video... 😂
      Pleasure collaborating with you mate. We should do it again soon... 😉

    Very informative video. I've been hesitant to use my tripod but see the merits.

    Great video guys! Couldn't agree more with your tips. Looking forward to seeing your video on techniques for using a snoot light.

    • @MatthiasLebo
      @MatthiasLebo  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the feedback guys. Should be another few weeks before we're ready to publish the snoot techniques video. It's gonna be good though... 🤗😎

    Matthias, do you use different lights for macro and wide angle videos or just dial down the power setting?

    • @MatthiasLebo
      @MatthiasLebo  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Usually I dial down the power unless I want to take some more special macro shots (black background) in which case I use a snoot light like the Backscatter MW4300.

    can we use gopro with macro lens provided in the market or can we use the regular magnifying glass 🔍 to focus on a subject using gopro

    • @MatthiasLebo
      @MatthiasLebo  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I wouldn't use a magnifying glass. That seems awfully complicated and I'm pretty sure the results are not going to be the same. I would use one like this, depending on your GoPro model: amzn.to/3iJ05ER

    Matthias I have been Mc Gyvering my tray for a cheaper solution. Where do I get a budget option.

    • @MatthiasLebo
      @MatthiasLebo  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      What exactly are you looking for? Just a try to place your camera on or a tripod?

    • @alwyndmello2972
      @alwyndmello2972 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Matthias. I got a DIY rig. Wish I could share.

    • @MatthiasLebo
      @MatthiasLebo  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you’re looking for a camera try, Scubalamp is making a fairly good one that costs around US 100.
