Hi everyone, Thanks a lot for all the replies and the proposals for video set up. After long hesitations, I decided (well, my bank account decided) to only invest in a Magic-Filter for my Olympus Mju700. I tried it last week in Aur... Result is, filter works well up to 10-12...

Please, Name and shame!!!

Great Shot... The perspective is impressive and the cloud in the sky so present...

Thanks for these. To answer your questions: - I reckon normal TV might be enough, as you said. But I'm open to something else as I'm just trying to make up my mind for now - The more colorful, the better, but I know the limitations of underwater imaging, so... - Budget... Not really defined...

Hi All, I might be a bit of topic here, sorry if I am. I've been playing around with my UW PS for the past 2 years. Trying photography with not great result and I recently started to take more and more videos, editing them and put small films together. I'm now really considering going...

Hey Melvin, Great series indeed... Honestly, you could have posted the pic with the Emperor shrimp on the nudi... That's an amazing shot! Thanks for sharing. Pierre.

Hi Aaron, Great series again... Love your work. Cheers, Pierre.

Great shots indeed. The technique really gives amazing results. I would have one question on that one though. How do you achieve the black back ground? I've tried to play with exposure and post-processing a bit, but never to that level of darkness on the background... Which really put the...

I personally use this technique too. I often play with the transparency of the red layer to try to have something a bit more pleasant to your eye... Honestly, it's quite often just a start as some more 'manual' PS is often needed.

Hey! I'm using a small PnS compact for both photo and video: Olympus mju700 with Oly casing. It's small, handy, easy to use and generally speaking i'm pretty happy with it. For doing video, i'm actually thinking of getting a magic filter. No strobe to light the subject lah... Well, i'll...

I really love this shot. Awesome series you've got here... I really really really NEED to get to Lembeh!!! He he he :D Pierre.

Weather was nice until we sail back to Singapore (which is good cause you feel less gutted to come back) As for the water: calm in surface, no current and visibility between 10 to 20 meters depending on the dive sites... So great dive weekend all together.

Hi All, Was in Aur last weekend on Black Manta (Great boat by the way). Here are some shots extracted from this trip. C&C are indeed most welcome. Set up: Olympus Mju700 with internal strobe only. #1 #2 #3 #4 Thanks for viewing. Cheers, Pierre.

Thanks lot gentlemen!!! I'll give it a try. Even if I've got the feeling my camera is slightly too automatic to get this kind of nice result... Well, we'll see :) Cheers, Pierre.
