"Given that high frequency radio transmission, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth don’t work underwater, we had to find another way to ensure communication between the diver and the drone. We’ve looked at other industries and eventually found a solution mixing the best of marine...
The answer mainly depends on lighting/water quality. In blue water, it really doesn't matter. In lake or green water where light levels fade fast, you'll probably want something more recent as the newer models have better low light capability. One item you do need to factor in is that the...
Metering may also be a problem. If you are mounting the camera to the dive light were they are moving together and the light will always be centered in the view but by no means filling it, you might consider setting the metering to center spot. This should help keep the darkness from...
Actually, there are more than two. The AD series was followed by the 28AD series to help combat vignetting as P&S camera lenses got wider and wider. The LD series is the next step up from the 28AD series and was introduced at the time of Canon's S95 as lenses had not only gotten wider but the...
The reason why the dive housings for the Hero HD and the Hero2 are so rare is that when GoPro finally got them to market, it was only about 3 months before the end of the Hero2 line and thus not a lot of them were ever produced. And what was produced was snapped very quickly as the market had...
A phone number or if traveling internationally, an email address on the inside of the housing is also a good idea.
As far as retainers, I'm partial to the mini-snappys. Sure they have plastic clips but more than likely you are hooking to plastic rings anyway. Plastic clips won't burn you if...
Sorry I didn't find this post sooner, I could have saved you some sanding. The back doors for the older V1 models of the battery backpac and LCD are deeper than the ones developed for the hero3 models. These are the backpacs developed for the hero2 line yet they are fully compatible with the...
There have been a number of reports of people entering serial numbers and the program indicating they are not valid. Whether these are counterfeits or ones that slipped out the back door of the factory and thus were never properly registered in the system is unknown. The bigger problem is ones...
If purchasing from ebay always ask if the serial number is in its proper place in the battery box and is readable prior to purchase or bidding. Upon receipt, run the serial number through the update program to verify if it is legit. If not, return it. Also look for cameras that have all the...
Filters that fit the Hero 4 and Hero 3+ in the standard housing will fit the current production Hero and Hero+. Ref: Page Not Found | GoPro Official Website Just be sure and get the ones for the standard housing and not the dive housing.
