Here is a short video of our latest dives in Roatán, Honduras from July 2017. My partner and I flew in to our condo for a quick getaway from the kids. The video was shot in 4K over the course of six dives on a Panasonic LX100, Ikelite housing and WD-1 dome. This was my first set of dives with the new rig so I had a few problems with pulling focus and setting a consistent white balance. That said, it was a good learning experience and we had a lot of fun! I hope you enjoy the clip!

 
Great video! I'm considering the LX100 for my next setup (coming from an RX100).

Did you shoot with a filter or did you do a manual white balance? Any lights?

Thank you very much. This was my first outing with the LX-100 so I was still getting used to it. I did not use any filters on this. Rather, I manually white balanced off the sand or my hand for all the wide shots using only ambient light. For close-ups, I used a pair of BigBlue 2600 lumen lights and white balanced to the color temperature of the lights. I had much better results on my second outing where I also tried to shoot some macro stuff. The video is here in case you are interested:
