This cam has better video quality than LX3 does it?

[xMika03]

where did you get the underwater housing & how much was it

[oceanic16]

Was this at Napantaw?

[sgualdini]

did you use a color-correction filter (aka magic filter or URWPro)?

[wickedinnit]

nope though your idea of magic filter sounds great ! maybe i should give it a go but i find the underwater mode seems fine..

[mRgOuTy]

tol whats up with that beeping sound on the back ground??? i have the same problem wid my lumix ts1.... do you know how to fix that???

[wickedinnit]

you need to update your firmware

[Andgrey]

Actually, after looking again it could use a bit mor red as the anthias look a bit washed out. The yellows are great. Great sound too . You can even hear a pop as the parrot fish bites off a chunk of coral or rock!

[wickedinnit]

this is my 2nd vid shot so i was still playing around with the settings...maybe i went a bit too fast..getting better as you can see in my manta (No4.) . But really i havent done much..the camera is mostly automatic.. Am sure the colours can be enhanced during the video editng process thru Sony Vegas 9..though i would have preferred PANY add vivid colour to their firmware...pl subscribe sto my channel :-p

[Andgrey]

I think you should keep it natural rather than have everything glowing like a pic from a tourist pamphlet. You seem to have captured the colors about right. Anyone whose been arround a reef and soft corals knows that most of them aren't really colorful. When a colorful fish does come into view you can see that your camera is picking up the color very well. Just my opinion . Great vid

[dbatchelor07]

never seen such beauty in my own hometown . .thanks for sharing the video .. hope 2 dive there soon . .

[JondigidolCE]

Wow! You must have had fun taking this video! Maybe Panasonic can update the firmware with a Vivid option? I have the same camera and pleased with the standard. These cameras can only get better! :)

[lambo7ferrari]

is this cam waterproof?

[NastyCrew]

No u need a thing around it lol

[phlipfreq]

That would have sucked...O its not waterproof I saw underwater videos on youtube:-/

[airgreek]

Dont get me wrong very sharp picture but if you compare it to a Canon SD970 HD video with color vivid option on you will see what I mean

[wickedinnit]

sounds like a neat camera too. well in avchd editor one can change the saturation and colour on vid.

[airgreek]

WOW love the nature scenery but the color is flat like my Panasonic SD9 HD camcorder. Canon SD970 with Vivid color option on seems like it has the color right

[wickedinnit]

thanks and yeh its my first time using it. I will try and found out how to make the colours more vivid..not sure how though since the settings are mostly auto though i could experiment with diff colour filters taped across the lens
