Edit magic

Had a little play with final cut the other night and i've found some pretty cool filters and ways to distort the whole image or just certain parts so it's looking good. Can't pop the pictures on here but will have them in my research book to show you guys at the tutorial on wednesday or sooner if we have a meeting. Peace

adams cam best fit ....

Thom

ive been out in the workshop

and I'm happy to say that i've made something which will work as an underwater camera housing. doesn't look great, but hey :P

i followed a similar design to the one in the video below.

siliconed any areas that water could get in, and ive put a screw bottom so itll be easy to get cam in and out.

put Vaseline on the threads too, to make the seal on the threads that bit better.

test day tomorrow :)

i think it'll be safe up to the depths we want to go btw. its not like were doing a 20m dive... :)

oh click the pics if you want to view full screen.
