howard4113:I just got back from Cozumel and my first salt water video experience. I'm going to tell you now what I'm wish I knew before I left. GET A RED FILTER. I use a light cannon too and I can tell you it's pretty much worthless above 90 feet in most conditions - unless you're within two feet or so of the subject. The ambient blue light is much stronger than the video light.

Dear Mark,
What I feel good about underwater videography is that blueish feeling. Unless you're shooting macro or close-up video of u/w creatures, I think leaving the red filter on deck is a better idea...

I mean it's already blue out there!... Why try to change it?
Rgrds.
