Underwater Video Camera Shrimp

This camera is for underwater professional video. It is a full HD signal. SDI was what I needed. It is a perfect size and can be used with great optic. As all the time B & H was very fast for shipping. I received the camera 2 weeks after the order. Four to six were annonced.

I did not expect much from this camera but it blew me away. It has it's limitations but for the price it comes up with a great video. I took the kids to the pool and played around with it underwater. Really good underwater video. I even used the cam in my car for vloging and the mic on the camera delivered clear audio better than my camcorder does. For the price everybody into video should have one because the camera is good and cheap so if you run over it, drop it off a mountain or have a moose swallow it, it's no big deal.

I got this lens to shoot underwater video and stills with my Sony A6500 in an Ikelite DL/M200 housing. Sunday morning was my first dive with it. To say that it didn't disappoint would be a gross understatement! This lens is razor sharp, with very fast autofocus. I found that with other lenses on this camera, I had to set the autofocus speed to responsive, which is much faster than Standard. With this lens, I have to dial that back down, as the AF responds a bit too quickly now for my taste! Even with the A6500's 1.5x crop factor, giving this lens the equivalent angle of view as that of a 24mm lens on a full frame camera, this lens's ability to focus at very close distances makes it an excellent lens for underwater work for all but the smallest of subjects. The image I've attached is a saved frame from 4K video I shot Sunday morning. The subject is a curious Sheepshead that came in for a very close up look at my camera! I have several Sigma lenses for Canon: the 24-105 Art and 150-600 Sports, and this very value-priced 16mm prime for the Sony E mount continues that fine tradition of quality glass. Good job, Sigma!

I purchased this video specifically because Canon makes a compact underwater housing for it. The housing instructions tell you how to set the camera for underwater, and although the instructions were a bit vague, and Canon support was not helpful, it is a one time adjustment. I just got back from first dive trip with it and the underwater colors were about as natural as watching Planet Earth. It did well on large animals, like dolphins, and equally well on all but the tiny macro stuff. The bright screen setting enabled me to see the LCD panel easily underwater. I used the camera with a Lite Cannon 100 underwater light and a diffuser for overhangs and darker days. Overall, I have never been this happy with an underwater camera.

Used it on vacation,and was definitely worth getting . Especially for underwater video and pictures.

I took shots at dark. The camera saw what I could not. It is going to be quite useful in my underwater adventures.

I need this product in my sealife underwater camera

keeps the dreaded underwater camera fog at bay.

This is a great find which is very affordable and works perfectly for my need to film fish and shrimp entering an underwater sherimp trawl. It attached to the bar of the beam trawl without too much adaptation of all the accessories included in the pack. The cost and quality of the video has to be the best features of the camera adn if the trawl gets snagged it is not expensive to replace. I have since ordered two more cameras to attach onto the trawl and now multiple views can be recorded. I have not found any cons regarding this product except that the instruction booklet is somewhat useless but after half an hour with my 13 year old son all the features are clear to me now.

I highly recommend this if you have an underwater camera and want to make sure you don't lose it.
