Title: GoPro underwater catastrophe/puke
Post by: Suljo on August 29, 2012, 19:30

I buy it before vacation hoping to shoot few diving shoots but images that wannabe camera takes is SHT, no it is the biggest SHT that I didnt see long long time ago.

Imagine that you find some of you oxidized cell image from old camera which you know it is shaked, blurry and with wrong color balance and put it into cheapest dia/transparent scanner. It is even worse than that...
Just puke.....

Last year I buy small Sony DSC HX5V with primitive underwater case and results are lets say ok only is very awkwardly for shooting underwater, GoPro is more easy to use especially with built in intervalometer but results are complete disaster. I am very disapointed.

I tried that also, an underwater housing and a cheap camera.
Didnt work, so now I take the underwater photos at home in the studio

or photoshop them:

pimping?
Was that so bad?

A picture says more than 1000 words.
and we do want to look at eachothers pictures.
Dont we?

anyway, my point was...
you cant go cheap with underwater photos, and there is a demand in the market.
and some people do it well, and make splendid underwater photos.
A small market share can be taken with studio or photoshop works.
