Hi all
I am using a Canon S95 camera with 720HD video capabilities. We do a lot of scuba diving with seals and I have a problem when they come zooming by and then swim straight upwards...
Apart from battling with the low vis factor sometimes, I find that when I am following them with the camera (panning with the camera upwards), I can't adjust the white balance and the picture goes completely white. I lose all definition of the seals.
The focal point is set to 2.8 on the video and I adjust white balance manually. I use Pinnacle Studio Ultimate for editing. Here is a video I took at the weekend and you will see what I mean.... YouTube - Indigo Scuba and the Seal Divers
Should I be using a wide angle lense or some sort of filter?
Anyone have any idea how I can prevent this from happening? It is so disappointing :depressed:
Thank you.
