A brief clip from every week lengthy journey from Komodo, Indonesia with the Komodo Dancer (Ombak Biru). I used to be testing the vast angle capabilities of the A7s/Shogun combo with the Sony FE 16-35 lens in a Nauticam housing and the 180mm dome.
Komodo presents a few of the most wonderful scuba diving discovered wherever. The coral reefs are extremely wholesome and vibrant (essentially the most wholesome I've seen wherever in a very long time). The quantity of fish life I witnessed was gorgeous. The dive websites fluctuate providing each macro and vast angle alternatives. As this was a check of the vast angle setup, I've solely included clips shot with the 16-35 lens.
Sadly, I used to be on a brief one week journey and solely had the chance to dive signature websites as soon as every. I extremely advocate going for for much longer. As soon as is not sufficient at many of those websites!
The Sony carried out effectively. I used to be in a position to shoot at a lot increased ISOs than I usually would and had loads of flexibility to make use of totally different shutter speeds and apertures. My solely gripe was acquiring a customized white steadiness with the digital camera underwater. I might get errors usually and the colour area/tint would must be additional advantageous tuned (fortunately, there's an possibility to do this). Nonetheless, in lots of instances, UW Auto White Steadiness was extraordinarily usable! The one time I had issues with it was the occasional shift in colour mid shoot when the UW Auto WB would try and compensate due to altering circumstances. I'll want extra vast angle dives to check settings.
The Sony FE 16-35 is completely excellent! Mixed with the Nauticam 180mm optical glass dome, I had a way more compact setup in contrast in opposition to most DSLR methods. That is undoubtedly the go-to lens for vast angle video work.
Lastly the Shogun. I can not inform you how superior it's to shoot video utilizing such a big monitor. I by no means felt that the setup was too cumbersome at any level. With the 180 dome, carbon fiber arms, Fisheye's Repair Aquavolt 7000 and the Nauticam tray and mounting system, the complete rig was a simply little unfavourable within the water. I might have most well-liked it if the monitor was a little bit additional ahead although. Maybe Nauticam may make non-compulsory alternative handles that sat a little bit additional again and tilts ahead in order that the file lever can nonetheless be reached.
One factor to recollect with exterior recording although. The digital camera can solely output through the HDMI-out with none overlay within the MOVIE mode. On this mode with Sony lenses, steady AF is at all times on, it doesn't matter what AF setting you utilize (except for MF in fact). Fortunately, the transitions are easy.
Oh, did I point out, a 1tb SSD solely holds 2.5hrs of UHD video in Prores HQ format? :P
I do hope you loved watching this quick clip. Do go away a message in case you have questions or feedback, thanks! 4k model will probably be uploaded quickly on my Youtube channel.
