Dummy proof UW red adding photo editor

[heybra]

Just returned from Roatan after snapping 400 photos of critters and coral. This was my first rodeo with my new UW housing and I did not have enough $$ left over to buy a slave strobe. As expected, all my photos have the over blue tint to them. Does anyone know of a software program designed for underwater photography that allows you to push a red filter button to automatically correct my amateur ways? Free is good. Pay for may make 7 of the pics worth putting on the wall.

My photo editor wants me to adjust the red, blue, and green in each file. Remember when non adjustable bucket seats were more comfortable than the 8 way adjustments currently in your car....

Thanks

What do you use for above water shots?

 

[heybra]

Use an Oly Stylus 500 digital above and below water.

You can download a lot of trial software from Adobe here...http://www.adobe.com/downloads/

If you have Photoshop, the Kodak Digital ROC filter does a nice job. But it's $50, $99 for the Pro version. http://www.asf.com/

I have a red correct action for Photoshop I can e-mail you. It's kind of hit/miss though. Good thing about it being an action is that you can record another action using it once then apply it to all 400 photos(does this make sense?)

PM if you want it.

I found a nifty set of steps for adding a "virtual" red filter to your photos in Photoshop, It's quite effective...
