| Rather than follow fish by swimming after them, settle yourself down on the gravel, get negative by dumping everything, let the fish adapt to your presence, then start filming. heavier housings [like your own] are steadier in the water, so it's really a matter of getting used to it. sometimes diving on your own [putting the blinkered attitude of solo diving to one side for the moment] is a better option to chasing after other divers. you get to think about the shot first and better able to concentrate on the job. there comes a point when you have to ask yourself, are you diving to record the dive casually or are you diving with the sole purpose to film. you can't do both. |
