And video number 3

This is REALLY great HVX footage! I can't believe how you kept such sharp focus while moving around underwater. Very nice.

Makes me want to get in the water!

Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback. I was using a +3.5 dioptre for most of those shots.
Focusing can be tricky at times mainly due to the amount of plankton that is attracted to the lights of a night time.
Sometimes the plankton is so thick that I can't see the picture on the monitor. The auto focus works pretty well & once i find focus I usually lock it into manual to stop it hunting.
I am very happy with the macro footage but a lot of the wide angle footage shows digital noise in the water column, ie;blue or green water.
I made some more changes to the scene file recently so hoping to get out this weekend & test it.
Hopefully I can put up some more stuff soon.
Any tips for improvement are welcome & I have since got myself a tripod so the macro stuff will be much more stable now:)
Cheers Pete.
