sub-forum---but I'll start here(videography sub-forum has no 'Canon Corner' thingy to it).. In the video linked below, I took it with my S95 set to the built in UW ('fish' icon)filter.........My question is, would setting the camera to WB(& evaluating it---with a whitish card) have done a better 'job' of getting rid of the blue colors???..........I'm ONLY talking about from the ~1:15 mark on to the end of the video(the Rig Dive part)----the 1st ~ 1/2(the manta ray part)was shot by my buddy using a no red filter GoPro.......TIA.........

EDIT:......shot @ about 70 to 80 FSW..........

I think manually white balancing would help a lot. The red injected by the camera "fish" mode made your blue turn purplish. At that depth without lights it's going to be pretty blue regardless when doing a wide angle perspective.
