Hello,
since the Olympus TG4 cannot set shutter speed manually (only F stops) I struggle to find the right settings. I've been shooting for a year now without a light and set the camera to either auto ISO (shallow) or high ISO (deep water), everything else on Auto. Now I finally got a video light (Sea Dragon 2500) and tried in the pool (5 m depth, indoor, at night, low light). The results were not so great. I either overexposed the shot, got nice colors but a cyan colored backdrop (is that normal?) or the exposure dropped to 1/60 blurrying the whole thing
Which settings would you use? The camera can only set F stops but not the speed. I'm also not sure about the white balance. Do you use the underwater setting or daylight?
