Octopus Hole 3.12.14

Post by thechadmiller »

Just fired up my GoPro for the first time underwater. Hopefully it's not too painful to watch, just thought I'd post it. I typically enjoy even the worst dive videos...

Sweet video....what lens is on it? Gopro3? It has a strange effect in video.....feels like a rounded lens or something.

It's just the standard 3+ Black. There was a "remove fisheye effect" I forgot to check when importing the video. That might be it. I got a lot to learn, but filming was more fun than I thought.

DIY PVC tray. About $5 and 10 minutes to make.
