rlmalisz 0 Posted October 7, 2011 Just wondering if anyone here had experience and suggestions with the camcorder settings for the HFS30 for UW use. I have turned off "face tracking", since that seemed to be doomed to making bad decisions. Have the camera currently set at 17mbps, 24p (for better low-light performance). Have not turned off image stabilization--it's supposed to be quite good in the camera, although I know that is another "feature" that doesn't translate well to UW use. I can certainly learn what does and doesn't work in Raja Ampat, but hints before the rig sees its first blue water would be welcome. --Richard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What settings did you use that worked? I'm getting ready to take my HF-S30 to Roatan, and although I have played with it a bit locally, I would like to hear what you have found to work. Thanks!
