This is the best underwater video presentation that I've ever warched and I've watched a lot of them. I learned so much. Thank you for taking the time to prepare such a profesional and knowledge filled video.
Thank you! I really appreciate you taking the time to say that!
Thank you again so much for this. Getting ready for a dive trip and just watched it again to make sure I was ready to get the most out of our footage
I'm really glad it was helpful. Enjoy your trip!!
Awesome video, you covered everything. I like 2.7k and 60 fps. File size is still manageable, you can crop in a bit, and you can still slow down 50%. That slow motion is so important when fish are swimming by fast. Good video
Thanks Joe! Yeah one can definitely argue different settings for different purposes so I guess the trick is to be really aware what does what and when to use it. Thank you for your kind words!
Very helpful thank you. I just upgraded to a Hero 7 black and I’m looking forward to using your advice.

Great tips and thank you. Prepping for my next Caribbean trip to Cancun and Cozumel. Do you have a model number for the tray lamp extension arm? What basic lamp lumen do you recommend?
Thank you so much for these beginner tips. I just got a GoPro 7b and would love to start taking videos while sailing/diving.
You are more than welcome! Have fun!
Very good video , thank you!
It’s very useful. Thank you very much that you shared by your experience!

@@DiveSAGA I did it. Thank you! :-)
I appreciate the video. My wife and I recently got our open water diver certification and are traveling to Belize in December. I bought a Hero 7 with the housing and a tray and light. Praying I get some good video and photos. Your tips were definitely helpful. Will lighting correct color loss when we are at 45-55 feet?
Excellent tutorial !! Thank you :)
You are super welcome! Thank you for the kind comment!
Thanks for the information. I adjusted my GoPro to your specifications suggestions. Now I just need to get back in water to try it out. I wouldn’t mind some critique on my current uploads.
Great video mate!
Thanks! I like that you like it!
Informative video Good Job thank you for Sharing

Good and very usefull info for a roockie in Gopro underwater filming 👌
Thank you! Have an awesome day!
Thanks for the guide.
Thank you for the comment! Hopefully it makes a difference! :)
Excellent video...just subscribed.
Thank you for your kind words! Welcome to the family!
Do you use red filters? those helped me get greater color in the deeper shoots.
Really well done video 👍🏻. The white balance help a lot. Try it
Thank you for the nice comment! Really appreciated!
Thanks for the advice. Could you share your opinion on the performance of dji osmo action underwater?
If you have any friends who use it. Do share their user experience
Very helpful!
Thank you! Doing our best!
Super thx
What is the extender arm you use for that tray?
Thoughts on white balance settings? When I shoot in auto it tends to “drift” through the course of the video.
amazing video
Thank you! That's so kind!
This is such a good video. I'm a complete GoPro and underwater photo/video noob and this answered every possible question. Now to try out my GoPro underwater next week with your recommended settings..
Thank you! That's a really kind comment. I hope it helped! Definitely subscribe to the channel as we'll be doing more underwater GoPro videos in the future!
DiveSAGA I have a question regarding keeping the GoPro in super suit in water before diving. How long before the dive should this be done? In between dives is it ok to just keep the camera in super suit but not inside water?
@@RahulKalvapalle I like to put it in an hour before and then acclimate it in water until I start the dive
DiveSAGA Can this be done in any fresh water or does it have to be the ocean water? (Sorry for all the questions lol my first time)
@@RahulKalvapalle I often just use fresh water
Great video and thanks for the information. Probably I do not well understood but the white balance setting has not been well explained (I am Italian). Some people said that it is better to use native setting (raw) in order to have much more color control during the post editing.
I use the following Gopro Hero6 Protune setting:
2.7K
60fps
FOV wide (or linear as you said)
EV -0.5 (or 0 is better?)
ISO min 100
ISO max 800
WB Auto (or RAW is better?)
Sharpness Medium
Color Flat
Audio off
What do you think about that?
I didn't go into the white balance settings indeed. Manual is always best but I don't think the GoPro offers that, so RAW would indeed be the next best thing for control afterwards!
This is great. Thanks to your series of stories on IG the other day, I finally decided on my very first underwater camera (long overdue!). I had been delaying because I like the idea of using my DSLR with a housing, but those housings are SO expensive and I'm just getting started so I didn't want to wait that long. I was against the GoPro idea because I didn't realize the quality could be so high. After seeing you demonstrate that the GoPro can make some amazing images/videos and doing a bit more research, I went with the Hero 8 Black and now I'm spending this quarantine getting to know it and researching a good and simple setup to get me started (like you're talking about here). Thank you so much!
That's awesome to hear! Looking forward to see some results!
The deeper you go, the more red color you will lose. That's why there are filters you can put in front of your lens. Tried it with many dives and even at 25 meters you still get a clear view with colors like you saw with your own eyes. The filters are purchaseble on Amazon
Hi Jesse! I know :) I just prefer to stay shallow or use a light because with filters you always lose a bit of light. A good filter is a very useful tool though, you are right!
💯 👍
Cheers from your neighbor here in Roatan! Could you please tell me how to navigate to the color correction settings in Premiere Pro that you showed in this video?
On the top of the screen you should be able to select "color", then you choose "curves"
@@DiveSAGA thanks! I will need to hop a quick plane ride to check you guys out soon 😊
@@SummerDawn Always welcome!
The biggest problem with 120fps to me is the loss of light and with the gopro noisy footage to me is even worse than being shaky.
but very good video still, with generally properly good tips 👌🏼
You're definitely right. Maybe worth another video to explain that aspect as well!!
Thank you for the video, now just need play with the camera.
You are welcome! Thank you for watching!
Do you feel one should dive with a chesty, arid the head, or from a shorty pole?
Just hand held or on a very short grip or tray is the only way to properly frame your shot, in my opinion.
I’m surprised you didn’t bring up lights when diving deeper than 30 feet, to bring colors back into the scene. Why is that?
Hii
It will work with the hero 8?
Thanks
Yes definitely!
Hey man, I am a somewhat-growing TH-cam channel and photographer who is getting into professional photography services. I currently own the GoPro 7 Black and I use your information in my recent dives which helped immensely. I just typed up a blog post and recommended you to those who are curious about how to take great videos/photos underwater. Thank you for all the help and I will be recommending you and your tips to everyone who is interested. If you want to see the blog post, just comment back and I will send the link. Thank you so much again!
Thank you, that's awesome. I would definitely like to read it!
@@DiveSAGA feel free to check out the website and let me know what you think
Problem with shooting in 1080 is that you cannot frame shots without losing quality. I love 4K for that reason.
That's certainly true although I will still sometimes crop 120% without most viewers really noticing :)
Do you need a case when snorkelling if the GoPro is waterproof anyway?
Not necessarily but beyond a few feet the buttons stop working well. A case is definitely also safer
Thanks so much! Great video!
@@carolmcdonald9270 Thank you for watching! Definitely subscribe if you haven't already 😁
i notice somtime my flilm flips up side down and letter box frame how can i correct that? please help
Sometimes the gopro thinks it's upside down (usually due to the way you're holding it) and it will try to correct by flipping the image.
@@DiveSAGA thank you for replying, how do i keep my screen to stay wide angle , every now and then it flips to narrow lens the back to wide,
RED LENS!!!
wouldn't it be better to up load the Dive+ app to my laptop vs my camera?
Yes but you can upload to the app on your smartphone and sync your GoPro to it

Acclimatise your GoPro? HaaaHaha, what stupid advice, the GoPro will still fog up with condensation in the case, GO ON EBAY AND BUY ANTI FOG INSERTS FOR AS LITTLE AS $2 PER 12 PACK, these inserts soak up any moisture between the case and camera, I recommend 2, one in the top of case and one in the bottom of case, guaranteed no more condensation.
