Ron the embed is showing up now strange, I thought it may have been because I was on the mobile as it showed up on the PC last nite but now its also visible on the mobile. The colours are nice on that video so whatever filter your using is doing quite well. There are more options and I have never liked internal filters too much, especially with the dive housings if you need to unscrew the front lens to get it in and out.
Its completely up to the user to use whatever setup they want, you can use a basic gel sheet and hope to get good results for the cheapest possible outlay and just deal with the negatives of that setup. You can use external filters and choose your own brands and just because some are low quality cheap and nasty it doesn't mean everyone wants that.
Much like you can eat at McDonalds for a couple dollars but that doesn't mean that's all that should be available, and all food standards and pricing should be based of that terrible food. I don't see why some are so negative about anyone that is actually bringing out good quality stuff, wishing every company just made the cheapest and nastiest stuff possible.
If you don't like it fair enough but would you rather they steal the filter design and go generic then offshore the labour to a 3rd world country whilst at the same time getting the quality to the general Chinese junk standard. You can then get your $30 price limit, probably better if they continue to be an ethical company and produce the basic quality products they can and those that appreciate good quality products will at least still have an alternative to the Chinese made junk.
In the end you get what you pay for and URPro are the original inventers of underwater filters, and SRP make some good quality stuff in the US and not mass produced by slave labour in a 3rd world country. Its a shame not too many countries in the west are still making stuff as most just want the cheapest possible product, with no real care about quality or how many people are exploited to get it to you for a few dollars less. I think its quite sad but that's the world we are living in and I gladly support people or companies that don't follow that method.
This topic has gone completely off topic and maybe a mod could seprate these posts unrelated to its own thread? So we can continue on with just discussing the topics title and this can be discussed in another thread.
