Key West Snapper Spawn 2012 on Vimeo link to snippet shot of key west snapper spawn in aug this year. i shot on a sea mount 16 miles west of kw. this untouched footage is my best technical work so far on available lite @ 58 fsw. Sony nex5n with nauticam housing and nikonos 15mm wide angle lens.i saw the school spawn and moved up along the edge of the sea mount and then stayed still, letting the snapper cover me. lotta fun.
now back home i discover than in video w/ nex5n exposure compensation can be used during video in AP mode. so i hope next year when i dive Key West to brighten up the video when i film the spawn again by switching to AP and setting the iso to 3600, and possibly increasing exposure compensation. and maybe a litttle increase in Kelvin in the WB menu to bring out some red. so theres room for improvement.
