Panasonic GS250 and Ocean Images housing

I wouldn't expect turning it off to make a difference unless the camera calibrates itself on startup and pointed it at a white slate.

WB works great, I've done the same for photos myself, and I understand the basic concept but wasn't sure how it worked out in practice.

I've never tried that, but wonder if thats a video thing only. I've done the same thing with my digital still, and it never corrects it. It however does have wb control and I've been amazed with the images thus far with using W/B.

If you want to see some differences with nofilter/filter/wb, check about 3/4s down this page.....this guy has an awesome example.

also attached an image that I used wb. it was a bit dark so the camera used a slow shutter speed, but you can see how it looks. This is with a canon s500 wb corrected on a white board I brought down with me.

Me either till I took that shot on my last dive trip... :05:
I was quite happy with the results. Now to try it with the video to see how well that goes. This weekend!!! man I can't wait...

I ended up with a Panasonic GS250 miniDV camcorder, but never bought a housing for it. Does anyone have a housing that will work for this camera? S&Sea or Ocean Images? Anything?
