Hi everyone,
I'm Matt, I'm new to diving, my girlfriend and I got PADI certified about a year and a half ago, and finally took a trip to Cancun recently to dive for 3 days. We got in the MUSA and a shallow reef the first day, a shipwreck (90 feet) and a deeper reef (60 feet) the second day, and Dos Ojos The Pit and Barbie Line the third day, and capped it off with a night dive that night on a shallow reef. We're hooked!
I joined the forum to learn about underwater photography and videography and equipment. I brought my GoPro Hero 5 Session and it overheated and died on me about half way through my second dive and wouldn't work for the rest of the trip. Luckily, our divemaster had a Hero 4 and sidekick duo to lend me. I got some phenomenal (to us, but not really) footage of The Pit and the night dive, but I think it could be better. Plus I want a more reliable camera, though I'm not opposed to getting a new GoPro.
Anyway, great to meet you all, and if you have any suggestions, reach out.
Thanks in advance!
Matt
