Raja Ampat, Indonesia from the Luxury Liveaboard Arenui

[mjh]

We love Raja and thought we would try the 14day Arenui trip. Great itinerary as you hit all the major spots. Best of all not only did we have an incredible experience with a manta, for the first time we dove with Giant Mantas!!!

Wow. Incredible video. Must have been a heck of a trip. What camera did you shoot the video with?

Most of the video is shot with the Canon HF G30 in a Gates housing. For the Macro Julie uses a +5 diopter. I want to note that we don't use tripods as we have seen the damage they can do to the reef so she really has tuned in her buoyancy to get shots of pygmy seahorses and the like. Some of the WA video was also taken with the Sony RX100.
