Testing out the new GOPRO, Diving for crays 15m off Rottnest

 Went to Rotto the other weekend to give the Gopro 3 Black a whirl. 
Underwater footage from the camera is amazing! Even though the remote did break.

 Cool vid, but that looked about 15ft deep, not 15m. Unless you mean 15m offshore?

Thanks, a lot were undersized but we did manage to get enough sized ones for  a feed. 

Yeah we were 15m meters off the shore. It was pretty shallow, just a couple of meters.

Re software and mounts

 I use Imovie for editing. I have used a few different types of video editing software and imovie has always come out on top for me.

I used the Gopro head mount but I lost a lot of footage as the head mount cant see under ledges due to it sitting above my goggle. Since then i have got a tripod mount and some tripod screws off ebay and taped the tripod screw onto the snare to mount the camera. It has worked really well and the footage is a lot better!
