@formgren hi, …
@formgren hi, brilliant camera, so durable, amazing above water but a real extra bonus that it’s waterproof to 60m as well! Im just holding it for this footage, stays pretty stable as im sure you can imagine the resistance from water stops you being able to move too erratically (like my normal above water filmings) 😉

@DJTarga yh true, but I found that when recording in 1080 it tends to error a lot which is fine if you can look, check, then restart it but I do a lot of motorbike racing and there is nothing worse then getting off to find it stopped recording 10mins into it, so now I only record on 480 and have had no issues at all…

YOUR LUCKY! when i went on holiday to cyprus, we went diving at about 26m max.and as we went down to this wreck,a massive shark swam above us, and all i saw was a shadow (like a glimer) so i thought it was a massive fish, and jolted my head towards it and guess what!? it was a grey nurse shark, and i myself! :Land it nudged my girlfriends arm and i thought shit,if this shark touches here again im gunna pull its eyes out threw its ass! :L ive never seen something with such scary teeth! 😀

how did you mount the camera, using the headstrap?
@southerntrails I …
@southerntrails I heard that the fish-eye lens went out of focus underwater, and you needed the flat lens housing to fix that. But this video seems fine! I’m yet to try my gopro underwater….
@southerntrails Hi, …
@southerntrails Hi, flat lences are for clearing the focus underwater not about curves or not. In this videos is obvius that some things are out of focus. When you approach the rocks just before 2:00 the but focus on left and right is quite obvius. But anywasy still a very nice video. Cheers
Excellent footage! …
Excellent footage! Thanks!

Thanks for the …
Thanks for the quick reply. The flat lens still has a fish eye view it just helps focus better yet I thought your video was perfectly in focus. Now if I only could take a trip to dive egypt I could test it for myself….laughing.
@LoveRise Hi, I …
@LoveRise Hi, I don’t think it’s wide angle simply the GoPro HD Hero… It’s just the standard lens, ive heard of the flat lens but this is the fisheye style. I assume because the outer subject is continuous water it is not that obvious it is fish eyed. For my motor biking videos the fish eye curve is very obvious but maybe it doesn’t effect it too much underwater?
‘Great video. Which …
‘Great video. Which model is this the 960 or the wide angel hd. Also are you using the lens that comes with the camera or the corrective flat lens that you buy seperately. If this is with the normal lens I see no need for the corrective one?
