Just a follow up on what Leni Riefenstahl used to do her video...
Tonight I was talking to a friend who used to do underwater video, but now does underwater still photography for a living, and he said he actually met and dove with Leni Riefenstahl once in the late 80's.
It was quite a while ago (so the time period rules out HID lights) and he recalls that her cameraman was using Betacam with two lights attached to the housing. He guessed that they were 250 watt bulbs and were running off a very large battery.
At any rate, it's not something I can even begin to consider for my own videos... but it was quite interesting to hear his story. He said she was an incredibly nice person and invited him to dive together with her team.
