First Underwater deep SEDNA test
  • LongJohnSilverLongJohnSilver

    Hi all,

    Saturday finally I got my Nauticam housing so I had the chance to bring with me underwater. Actually I had organized a deep dive with my friends already. So it wasn't the best circumstance to test a brand new equipment: too many things to pay attention to: gases, scooter, depth... but I did not resist bringing the new housing and lights with me. I had a lot problems trying to get the proper light orientation (2x L&M SOLA 2000). The lumix 8mm fisheye has a huge angle so the lights must be moved back to fill the scene. Anyway... just a test with sickening shots.

    @driftwood SEDNA A settings, mostly ISO 500, Lumix 8mm wide open (it's quite soft at the borders). All the shots taken between 60 and 75meter (195 - 246 feet)

    I want that Nauticam housing bad, so expensive though.

    @LongJohnSilver Oh yes, really nice stuff. Quite eerie some of those shots. That casing is bloody lovely. Well done mate.

    @Rambo, yes it's expensive but it's half the price of a typical DSRL housing.

    Thank you all.

    @leonbeas Yes this is the reason I called it sickening shots. It's a test made with a brand new equipment made in the worst moment just to show Sedna underwater :)

    Bye
