Hello Chris,

 

The H3D-39 mf camera u/w is an amazing tool. I just recently sent it in to Denmark for maintenance and received a free focus calibration that is just simply incredible. The raw image w/o a single drop of sharpening is pin sharp and has improved my u/w shots. However, there are 2 remaining steps to get to the next level:

1). The new Phocus software for pc users will come out in June to allow 800iso shooting (400iso now)

2). All 4 corners do show blurring varying with subject distance from port. A new port is supposedly

being worked on.

Heat from the db is not an issue, the images are clean as a whistle. Keeping the housing from direct sunlight whilst in the boat between dives is advisable so it doesn't sweat inside with condensation inside when going to cool deep depths.

 

I am presently compositing images for wall murals to sell and eventually fire burn ceramic tiles.

Beautiful image Troy; great to see you are seeing the potential of this rig. What lens for this shot?

[rtrski 20]

Shot, or shot(s)? I was pretty clear this was a composite... Can't tell from just the thumbnail, but from the linked pic it sure looks to be.

Shot, or shot(s)?

I've been following this thread with great interest (very entertaining as well as educational) ... and I believe the indivdual shots that made up the composite were posted as thumbnails earlier on ...

[loftus 42]

Yes, you guys are correct; These were posted earlier.

I think it turned out very nicely.

I'm sure it's impressive on the wall.

Hello everyone,

 

Just an update on corner blur improvements. Test pool completed and as i understand it some tests are being done to design a bigger port for improved corner sharpness by Uwe at UK-Germany. It has been 8 months since I purchased the housing for my camera. I can say I am still happy with the purchase but still waiting for some improvements for w/a shots. I will post samples hopefully during this summer from a new port. I hope and pray.

Hello Everyone

Just an update. UK-Germany promised a pool test awhile back. Since then until now, I have had no customer support, emails, returmed phone call etc. I begged one of there resellers to have Uwe (Owner)contact me to atleast let me know the results. Still no email or phone call. Anyway, here is a slideshow link of my last dive. I still enjoy my set up though. Simply copy & paste.

Regards
