I have this camera and love it. The only problem is my home made high intensity LCD 70 watt light is too bright for this camera. I've tried various white balance settings, and if I try to video something that's white or light in color, it washes out. I don't have a red filter, but this happens in shallow water above 20 feet too.
Examples;
Lover's Pt. west, beach three in Pacific Grove, CA. Poor vis, cloudy, white balance set to tungsten. Depth 27 feet, heavy kelp canopy and dark. Note; dive buddy was pointing their light at my video subject at times. You will see it.

Pt. Lobos in Carmel, CA. White balance set to auto. Sun was out. Various depths; 30-45 feet.

I got an answer already. I need a diffuser. It should be white, and I can fit it on the front of my light. There is a store that sells them cheap and also gives away samples; Tap Plastics.
