Corel Video studio X7 ultimate. Ultimate comes with the filters like Mercelli which works really good. You can get the software as a standalone program and it was way more options. I found Corel was the cheapest. The other program I use is Magic videostudio 2015. It has way simpler ways to...

polar pro you have to edit the footage and take some of the red out of it. They work great if you have software that can edit the footage. The trick is to turn off auto white balance and turn the red way down then the footage comes out wow that looks nice This was polarpro filter...

For me I looked at a rebreather then figured why not just go air I got everything including the tanks add an air compressor at the house and I can fill a tank on the spot and go no where. Cost of that ranges from 2,000 to 6,000 dive scooters seem to range from 397-1000 for the cheapy ones then...

The key word proper maintenance. Not everyone does that or they miss the hair on the seal then supprise you got a leak. See the way I look at it is they stack which means more seals. Put 2 batterys on you have the motor seal the extra battery seal then if you put 3 on you have another seal. The...

Well if you increase the thickness of the wetsuit you need more weight. For me it's 15lbs since I use a 7mm suit. Dump the weight you shoot up like a cork. You could always dump it in shallow water and see what happens when I have all the air out I don't float or sink. I use my breathing to go...

I was wondering how the battreys connect to each other. To me it seems like they would have problems with seals because they stack. Instead of 1 seal to worry about you can have 2 or 3. If 1 stack shorts out what happens?

Well it's just the operating system. Heck look up Hackintosh. You build a pc install mac onto it now you have a cheap mac pc with better hardware then you would have if you bought a mac at the start. OS has no bearing on editing heck I've had people that use mac only go wow that is so much...

Ok the Gopro dive housings are Hero 3 housings. They changed the design because the clips were breaking but due to the design it can with stand more pressure. (go figure) the problem comes from opening it the clip would break off on 1 side. For the gopro it can go deeper then it's rated but a...

The right settings will make the biggest difference. If you take a Nikon D800 or D4s and throw on a Nikon 14-24mm AFS f/2.8 G ED lense and take a picture with 2 second exposure at night just by holding it. It turns the night into day that's how much difference it makes. Now you have to hold for...

it seemed ok I wasn't sure how much thrust when compared to say the cuda or the p1. The problem I see with the p1 is I don't know how the battery attachs to the motor as you just bolt another on to increase the range. Buy a battery it becomes a p2 and I see it as 2 seals to leak instead of 1...

can you wear dive boots to protect your feet? I find wearing booties and an open fin is the way to go. Slip them on slide them in and go. If they're fitted fins they chew up your feet I find but with boots you can get thicker ones that give way more padding just go with 7 mil boots with rubber...

It's 40 ft from the house to the ocean then 34 stairs down a steep bank. It's doable the tank is 44.4lbs empty it's an XS scuba tank. The only problem is if you drift to much and can't make it back to shore in the same spot then it's a good hike/rock climbing to get out. Which is why a longer...

I dive with a steel 130 tank. Heavy sucker makes the AL80 seem like a feather. If you add it all together it's a fair amount of weight to go up rocky shores with. Yes you can dump the 15lb weight belt at the bottom and you can dump the bdc weights which is another 15. It's still not super easy...

50lbs is to much to lug up a rocky shore. Which is why I was wondering how much thrust is enough as some of the lighter ones don't run as long or don't have the same thrust.

Now I'm not a small person I'm 280 lbs just my self and then add on the dive gear and 25lbs of weight since I dive in cold water. I was wondering how much thrust or speed is needed in a DPV. I want something that I can do 2 shore dives with but won't kill the bank account I liked the Cuda 650...

It seems like new vs old tec design wise. I wouldn't know how good it is or isn't. It sure looks like they do allot of kicking when you watch a video on it. So thrust wise with dive gear on it would be hard to tell if it is good or not. The explore is a heavyier unit to lug around.

I use my hands to back up. But yes you can't really do that with split fins. Or I just go up and then forward I don't enter caves or go in things so backing up isn't a problem. I find filling the bcd with air taking all the gear off in the water then passing it to someone is the best way to...

I would recomened split fins. Like night and day compared to orginal fins I have xpert zoom fins. My brother bought regular fins he tired them and went wow what a difference. Takes the stress out of the legs and feet. Now you could also add a dive scooter and now you do allot less kicking and...

I use a pc. It's cheaper and the software is cheaper... It's simpler... I have used a macbook air and played around with the mac stuff grading footage all depends on the program. Corel video studio X7 (8 is out now) works good for most things it's a pain with the contrast since it's in the menus...

It's how you update the Gopro hero 2. So it's still free. Now if you want the full program with more features then you can buy it. However you don't really need the features so the free works fine for most people. I currently switched from Corel video studio X7 to Magic 2015 (it has way better...
