BTW I posted this under "Production" first but thought it might be better here...
I've shot a lot of stills underwater, using a Canon PowerShot SD950IS and it's "underwater" shooting mode, and then just some basic post production with Picasa's "I'm Feeling Lucky" option. It tends to work VERY well for general purpose. If I need something more advanced, I use Gimp or Photoshop (depending on my computer).
So, I'm thinking of going digital HD video. I have a Sony HDR SR12, and am thinking of the Equinox HD6 housing for it. So, on to the questions. I've reviewed the forums and lots of good info on white balance, filters, etc, but I have bit of an integrated question:
- How much can the post production in Vegas compensate for white balance or filters? Rather than buy a bunch of filters for all the different conditions I dive, I would prefer to perhaps have one filter (whatever that might be), or no filter, and then do the post production edits in software.
This is the way I shoot most stills to reasonable effect (for my purposes), and wondering to what extent I can do that in video.
