Hi Folks,
Just joined up to the scuba board last week and so far I really love the resource. I was looking around to see if there were any fellow videographers on the SB who wanted to exchange tips and tricks etc. Hopefully this is the best Forum to bring this up.
I have been doing Video of my Dives for about Ten years now. It is the best way that I have been able to fullfill my fantasy of being Jaques Costeau from when I was Eight years old and got to ask him a question at the auditorium in the Philidelphia Museum of Natural History. I shoot with a Sony TRV120 in an Ikelite housing. I love the color fidelity and sharpness of the DV, I have thought about moving up to a 3 CCD camera but I like not having an expensive camera in case of flooding and I have been happy with the quality. I Edit with Final Cut Pro and use DVD Studio Pro to produce my DVD's. If anyone else uses these programs I would particularly like to compare notes with you! I enjoy editing but I find it a very time consuming process and woud love suggestions on how to quicken it along.
Right now I am working on the movie that I shot last year in Roatan, hoping to finish it in time to go back down there on the 19th of this month!
If you have a reasonably fast connection you can see my "Teaser" at
