Caribbean snorkeling with GoPro Hero 3

[Heatheroe]

What is the best setting for snorkeling with the GoPro Hero3 Silver? We used it in Bonaire a few months ago and everything is very green

I am thinking of getting the SRP Blurfix3 SO naked (already have the CYN filter).

I asked on the GoPro forum but no responses yet.


Thanks!!!

I read the manual front to back yesterday and as far as I know it does have it. I think it's the white balance setting default that is making it green.


We NEVER run out of rum at our house

try it without the filter and play with the lighting settings. Next time try St.Vincent the water is much clearer than many other parts of the Caribbean and that alone helps a lot.

From what I have read, it's best to use Protune and film in Cam Raw. In the Silver edition Protune uses an auto white balance setting. We did not use a filter in Bonaire. I will try and play around with the footage tonight but I don't think I can adjust the colors much since it was filmed with default settings. We used our old Hero 960 as well and the colors were much better.
