5. Test of the Platinum…
6 months ago
This is a test film using a Royal Lens Platinum 0.2x and royal-lens.com on the Sony HC1 camera. No awards to be had for my test!
The lens was not designed to be used underwater, but behind a wide angle port it gives an amazing 180 degree view, wider than any maufacturers on the market produce.
Problems using this lens are as follows:
I had a few technical problems using this lens. The lens is silver, and needs to be painted black, as silver reflections can be seen in the glass port.
Next was the extreme vinyetting. I must Zoom in a bit more than I did to remover the cut-off. I did zoom in a bit, but still had problems. This was not seen in the viewfinder when filming..
The lens was designed for extreme sports, but It was the perfect lens underwater.
More films to follow. This is a great lens, and I will be using it more on projects this summer..
Thanks to Freediver Sara Campbell and the dive team at Delta P for their help.

Vignetting aside, these images are just magic!
turn off steadyshot so the vig doesnt move around
I will still need to zoom in a bit.
wonderful
longs dives....
Royal Lens Platinum 0.2x and royal-lens.com
And you don't see the vignette in the viewfinder, that's because it always records more than you see. This is called the 'tv safe zone', and you won't see it if you put it on tv, but on the computer you will see it.
I zoomed in, but not enought. I used the Royal Lens Platinum 0.2x and royal-lens.com
as a lens
I miss diving too! Still haven't got my diving license thingy.
What's the song by the way?
What surpises me is that the outside lensring seems to float as well (as mentioned by John K, is that the optical stabilizer that does it?). It gives almost a 3D effect to the cristal bowl...:)
Great capture indeed. Where was this?
quite, no bubbles, and long bottom times.... 1-6 hours or more.
great for fish, and keeping warm.
And which dive site was this?
more test too come. watch this space.
have a look at my other work.
my editing is not my strength...
