    That Oculus flat lens seemed to work well - very sharp! I've seen so many blurry underwater GoPro videos from people not changing the lens for UW!

    I bought a blurfix kit last week after using mine in a pool without it. Not cheap about 120 quid including a spare case to fit it to but seems to be well worth it. Have to test my fitting handy work in my brothers fish tank later actually!

    Ya it turned out pretty good, only thing is if you are shooting in 720p you need to crop a section of the video out. 1080p is fine though.

    For 30 euro you cant complain :D

    A DSD I did in Koh Tao a few weeks back not very interesting dive but I was using a GoPro Hero 2 with a Blurfix lens fitted. Camera was set to 1080p Medium FOV. Filter was a clear UV. its the raw video without any postproduction.

    A Puffer fish same camera and settings as above but snorkeling in shallow water. Video topped and tailed but no other edits or corrections.

    I was out diving yesterday and I have not taken any photos for a while now so this was the best five I took.

    These were all shot in Puerto Galera,Philippines.

    I'm still buzzing after this dive. My first on nitrox and my deepest so far @41m
    This was the final dive to complete my deep dive ticket. Unfortunately my Oceanic OCi dive computer had a moment after the dive and just knocked off and refused to turn back on. It was only its second dive after the previous one had been replaced for a faulty circuit board after about a years use.


    Some background info; the key biscayne is a jack up drill rig that brook its tow line in a storm and landed upside down in about 41m on a sandy bed. There is still a lot of debris scattered around. In march there is normally resident Grey Nurse sharks in attendance but for this dive there was only port jackson and wobbygong although I saw nether on my 2 dives. There was mountains of crays present (western rock lobster) and a big haul was brought back to the boat by those intent on catching them

    Lots of rebreathers and tec divers on the boat but I am unconvinced despite the short bottom time of the gain thats to be gotten from dragging all that extra gear around and deco stops..

    Well this place is pretty dead :eek:

    Dived the same site from the previous post again last week but the viz was garbage.

    Yesterday's dive off Rottnest Island made up for it
