first dive with My Gopro

Post by H20doctor »

so tever and i did a fun scooter dive over to the North dock , and i mounted my gopro on the nose of my xscooter... i used the Mako speargun lens fix for 24.00 , and its the shizz.. its acrylic for one so it wont shatter like the eye of mine lens, and its also made up of some non scratch resistant stuff?? So here is a fun movie... vis was pretty bad under the dock , but it was a great time with trever... enjoy ..

Very cool.

I just got a Gopro camera and I can hardly wait to use it. I got the blurfix lens for mine.

Looks like the camera handles low light well.

What video editing software are you using?

Thanks,

Mike

The low light is okay, but at depth it def shows off the artifacts of the codec. It's kinda cool, but really annoying at the same time.

FYI, my friend at GoPro says that they are now producing (Not selling yet) the Flat lens housing!!!

some of the video effects i used another different video program, I used Power Director Hd 11 , which is a easy program to use and only 65.00, but the editing timeline is kinda a funky, and not as easy to cut and clip video segments, and it get lagy on play back for reasons i have no clue about.. ? so i switch back and forth between the 2 depending on what im trying to acheive..But vegas is super easy to use and quick to chop and splice clips for me ..
