Hi there - glad to hear your interested in Moosehead Lake diving! I founded Moosehead Lake Divers in 2015. Been a slow season this year so not much activity underwater. Itching for a few dives. Love to play dive guide so please reach out. Best sites accessible only by boat...which I have...
Great info here. I had done some research on this exact topic prior to purchase which made me aware of issue of dimming over burn time. I suspect for some lights with greater load on battery this is big concern to be factored into purchase decision. For me it was bang for buck an flexibility...
I ended up with the Big Blue VL8300P. Bought two. I called Leisure Pro to place the order and they only ended up being $400 each....well worth it. Not sure if they're still available at this price. Battery life so far seems excellent. I've done two dives on one set of batteries running at...
Looking at a pair of Big Blue VL8300P lights for GH5 Nauticam video rig. Has anyone used these? Looking for review, comments, etc. They run just over $600 each. Same price point for Light & Motion gets me only 3800 lumen per light...half the output. These also have removable/replaceable...
I have a pair of i-Torch Pro6+ on my GoPro rig. 2800 lumen each, plus a few other fun settings (red, and UV). Mine shipped with two removable batteries with each light and charger (USB only). Been very happy with them. Nice wide even beam. I get about 45-60 mins at full power depending on...
I'm soon to be owner of same rig. Curious what you learn/have learned so far. Went with the N120 wide angle port and Olympus M.Zuiko ED 7-14mm f/2.8. Ordered...and waiting for arrival!
I'd love to show you the sights that weekend, but I have plans already. You're certainly welcome to join Moosehead Lake Divers anytime for some dives! We know some good spots on the lake.
Please check out Moosehead Lake Divers! Planning some dive weekends at Moosehead this summer... Please request to join Facebook group: Log into Facebook | Facebook
Great wreck diving and we have some very cool terrain dives as well:

Is anyone using this camera for underwater video? I'm looking for something with versatility for video above and below the surface. New to professional level gear underwater and have been shooting with a GoPro Hero4. Been a serious hobbyist still photographer for several years now and have...

Social Media Brings New England Divers to Descend on Moosehead Lake
GREENVILLE, ME, AUGUST 25, 2015 – Through social media, scuba divers are discovering there’s more beneath the surface of...
Led a group of four other divers on three dives up in Moosehead Lake on July 25, 2015. We did three dives described below from pontoon boat. We met around 8AM in Sandy Bay and left dock just after 9AM.
Dive 1:
"PPP" (Poverty Point Pinnacle) - This area is marked by a hazard buoy near southern...
Hey icechip! As per Silty Sam - I was just up at Moosehead on 7/25 with a group of four other divers. It was my second trip up there this summer. From what I know, there is a sidewheeler located just south of Birch Point near Mill Brook. I don't know where she lies exactly. Water is pretty...

Old Garden Beach right now has very rocky entrance. Sand is gone and now all smallish 1"-12" beach rocks. Just gotta be careful w/ footing. Exit is very tricky if there's any surf. Other than this...AOK!
I have a macro diopter which was used for most of the really close shots...which were too close in a few spots as even with diopter focusable distance is like 12". Camera was on an extendable pole. I'm getting steadier with practice :) Thank you for kudos!
This is 4th video I've shot and edited. Using GoPro Hero3 w/ PolarPro Switchblade and magenta filter. Natural light. Working on getting steadier...takes practice! This is compiled from two separate dives on 5/24/15. Max depth of 43'.
Magenta filter makes HUGE difference in green new...
No expert here as I'm just starting out w/ underwater video as well. I was pretty happy with results using PolarPro Switchblade 2.0 w/ red and macro lens. I can't say it's as well made as the flip, but it did the job.
Last few shots of girabaldi used the macro lens diopter. Whole video was...
