As Dave (Teamcasa) and I have said, carrying a camera is the surest way NOT to see a great white. Cameras are considered insurance that you will not see one. The one time I had one swim by close enough, my camera was focused on the giant sea bass in the other direction.
Dr. Bill,
I am not sure I understand what your mean? Are you stating that a camera perhaps gives off magnetic impulses that the GWS considers cold spots in hunting, (not a food source)?
Thus Joe the diver with his new gear enters GWS high traffic and his camera emits signals that the GWS has no interest in and keeps at a distance?
Dr Rocky Strong suggested that, GWS are very inquisitive and will seek such a source of loud banging or propellors moving, once the shark comes close to investigate, such noise will keep it away and repel it. So the question remains, what factors are at play with a underwater camera and a GWS?
Were you filming or taking pictures of the giant Sea Bass, is filming the same as a picture in terms of what a GWS will consider a deterent?
Thanks, Dr. Bill....
