@Jay429, Thank you. I was using a Nauticam housing and an 8.5" dome. Even on Macro. Till I can afford the entire macro setup.
@mothaibaphoto, thats a really good idea. I did a few in 16-bit and couldn't tell the difference. But again, things invisible to the naked eye can still rear its ugly head during compression. Ill try to do that for the entire clip and see if its better. Unfortunately the drone and GoPro are still in 8-bit. That's something I won't be able to escape from :-)
@dynalmadman, you're far too kind. Believe me I used to say the same thing and when I read your comment it made my day! I'll be honest with you, all I did before taking it underwater was do trials on land in the worst lighting conditions and mainly tried to recover my work in post as well as tweaking settings when recording. I did it over and over again so that I could be prepared to edit and film in the worst conditions. It helped a lot once submerged. Made it a lot easier to work with and gave me more time to deal with the underwater challenges like colors and filming positions. Thank you for your post. :-)
