Gopro or go different...?

[DRay]

The gopro's are insane good in wide angle but miss the close focus macro capabilities. Anyone experience with diopters? Own made ?

I am liking the Backscatter dual flip system with a +10 close up on one flipper and a Macromate on the other.

Thanks for your detailed reply. Do you have a brand name and model or a link to the 300m-1,000 ft metal case?

This one will do 200m 600ft and you can see all the screens. Some of the deeper ones you can't see the screens.

And in this link you can see a whole range of options. Remember that the 9, 10 and 11 are all the same size and can all use the same case

Recently I had my first divecruise with my 10. Recorded a lot and g
had no overheating issues. Made my film in imovie and the quality on a 55 inch screen are superb,

Hi bradmond and what is your experience? Any idea of the size of the critters and what is min focus distance?

From Backscatter.com:
"The Flip +10 Close-Up works great for shooting subjects sized from soccer balls down to golf balls that are roughly 8-12 inches from the camera."

For the +15, Golf Ball size objects at about 75mm from the lens.

I will post a short video later of what I've captured.

I measured the tool that comes with the +15 Macromate to set focus distance, it is 9.5 CM, not 7.5 that I posted earlier. Here's a short video of my first dive with the 2 lenses, using the +15 for this one. This video was longer but part of it was out of focus, the focal distance range is fairly small. This crab was maybe 40cm across.
