    I'm reviewing my dive log, and FYI the min temps we encountered while diving were from 25C (1 single dive) to 28C. Most were at 26-27C.

    (iPhone 15 + Divevolk + Sola) x Puerto Galera

    That wasn't a problem for me. I had my phone screen lock set to "never" and I only had to navigate to the app once per dive.

    (iPhone 15 + Divevolk + Sola) x Puerto Galera

    Blackmagic allows to do 4K, 60fps videos, and to load LUTs. I don't think the native app allows this.

    Trip report: Puerto Galera April 1st - 14, 2024 w/ Asia Divers & El Galleon

    I just came back from 2 weeks in the Philippines, adding up to 9 days of diving, and thought I'd share my experience here. Feel free to ask questions. Inbound flight: I flew Delta from Seattle to Seoul, had a 4hr layover, and then flew Korean Air from Seoul to Manila, to land in Terminal 1. I...

    (iPhone 15 + Divevolk + Sola) x Puerto Galera

    The 6 vids above are minimally processed in the iPhone's native photo viewer app, doing the Edit -> Adjust -> Auto, and removing the audio. They're also sized down from the 4k resolution.

    (iPhone 15 + Divevolk + Sola) x Puerto Galera

    I'm just back from a trip in Puerto Galera, diving with Asia Divers all around Sabang (plus 3 trips to Verde Island). I used my iPhone 15 Pro Max in a Divevolk housing to take videos. My light was the Sola Pro 15000, and I had the whole thing on a Nautical Flexitray with the right handle only. I...

    Why does iPhone's 120mm not focus?

    Below is a very brief (and yes, pretty bad) footage. I filmed the nudis using the standard cameras lens on my iPhone 15 Max Pro (in Divevolk housing), then switched to the 5x zoom lens. The phone refused to focus with the zoom lens. Why is it? (I'm using a Sola Pro 15000 on the default setting...

    Help me choose a light for iPhone vids

    Light & Motion had a great deal on the Sola 15000 so I bought it, along with a blue dome.

    Good 3mm wetsuits?

    I ended up buying a Bare Velocity. It fits me and the price was pretty good. Thank you everyone for your inputs!

    Help me choose a light for iPhone vids

    What do people think of the Sola Pro 15000 versus the Keldan 8X CRI95? Both have 15000lm, both admit blue filters, both have a high CRI... Obviously there's a price difference. The Keldan has the advantage of replaceable batteries. What are the other trade offs between the 2?

    Puerto Galera dive video

    Thank you. Those BigBlue lights seem like a great option (and a lot more reasonable than the Keldans...)

    Premium red filters with premium prices - worth it?

    I'm going to buy a red filter for a Seatouch 4 housing. I can buy the 67mm Divevolk filter, which is $22, or I can buy the 67mm Keltan filter, which is between $100 and $200, depending. So, my question is, does the premium Keldan pricing comes with a material difference in image quality? What do...

    Help me choose a light for iPhone vids

    Please help me select a few options for a video light. This will be for a trip to Puerto Galera. I will be filming with the iPhone 15 Pro Max in a DiveVolk Seatouch housing. I will be using a single light (I know it’s suboptimal) and I don’t really expect to be able to light a wide angle shot...
