Hi guys,
i just bought a gopro3 black (not 3+), a SRP cyan filter and I am thinking... what else I need to start taking movies underwater? I am going to hawaii in about 2 weeks, but I will not be going below 60 feet.
My questions are:
Back LCD: yes or now? Yes, it helps in framing the shot, but it also consumes batteries. I do not plan to keep filming all the dive, just to film if I see something interesting. However I will keep the camera on during the entire dive.. how long can I expect the batteries to last with LCD? And without?
Pole vs wrist? I used the wrist mount before and I think it works well, I know with a pole I can get closer but will the video be more wobbly? BTW Do you reckon this cheap pole is ok?
USD $ 11.99 - GoPro Camera Monopod Ski Pole Handle w/ Tripod Mount , Free Shipping On All Gadgets!
Anything else? Extra batteries maybe?
Thanks a lot!
