Hello,
I'm taking my 1st LOB in June on Blackbeard. I'm going to take my GoPro 6 but would like some feedback on how to set it up better.
Here's what I'm currently working with:
GoPro Hero 6 with a SuperSuit
Movo GB-U70 Underwater Diving Rig = https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0734772HY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Suptig Underwater 84 LED light (they claim 5000lux) = https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BY7127G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I've used this setup in our local quarry with mixed results, at some points the footage is good, and others its downright miserable.
Here's what I know im going to need to do.
Filters - I'm thinking of going with the backscatter flip7.
Ugh, that's about all that I'm kinda sure on..
The more I think about it, it looks like the flip filter might hit the tray, so I might be looking for a different tray, but the prices on those very so I'm not sure.
Also lighting, I think I need more light, so would it be better to grab another one of those Suptigs, or get something to replace the current light, go with 2 lights, get the lights out further?
I'm leaning towards just starting from scratch, but thought I would reach out to you and see what you think. I don't want to spend a ton, but I'd rather buy once / cry once. Budget would be around $300 or so. So what does SB think?
