HOW TO SET MANUAL WHITE BALANCE FOR UNDERWATER FILMING

[@wi_active6375]

Great videos. I learned a lot and I will learn every day a little bit more. So, you're right with the automatic white balance under water. I tried it with and without the Keldan spectrum filter, the results aren't good. My camera is a Sony RX 100 III, with a manual white balance the measurement is always 9900K A-B:B0, G-M:M7, with or without the filter. The results are better, but in my opinion that can't be ok. The camera is limited to 9900k, for the former RX100 II Sony recommended 9900k A-B:B5, G-M:M7. I tried this setting but it wasn't good. So, the question is, is the reality above 9900k and the camera can't follow or is the realty below 9900k and the camera is damaged. I don't know. Maybe it's a Sony problem, maybe I did something wrong. What do you think with your experience.

[@Lytemotiv]

What is the best white balance in 2 meters water. Clear water, mediterran sea. ? Without using a filter. All the best

[@ilyagr7998]

Thanks a lot 🙏 great vid

[@alaafahmy8146]

the recommended white balance cards are big. how are they carried underwater?

[@pearlykick1108]

Wondering what setting best for Gopro? Unable to change during the dive. Would this be a case of trying to gauge which preset depending on max depth of dive and the conditions you expect to dive in? Thanks.

[@oppoburuko]

One question: would zooming-in on the grey card to fill the frame affect the white balance setting?

[@KSVWienonAir]

Wenn ich mit Licht filme, reicht eine einmalige withe balance mit aufgedrehter Beleuchtung für jede Tiefe?

[@luisribeiro4267]

2'57''... but if you messed up the white balance, well, you're screwed(!) Loooool 4'27'' ... I don't have a green fruit... Looooool Just hillarious Simply put: I love you Sensei! You make me laugh out loud! POWER & RESPECT to you miss V-C-K

[@ReefPatrol]

Hehe thanks... had a good laugh myself... and had to collect all the veggis after the shoot 🤭🥴

[@ChronicKPOP]

screwed? just post process the white balance

[@linamaringaviria4722]

What would be the best option with a goPro, since I can't change anything during the dive? Thx! (Love your vids btw)

[@c.patricksadowski9959]

Had the same question...I think us go pro shooters are “screwed”

[@Changderson]

You can get colour filters that help :) it's discussed in another of their videos. GoPro's strength is its weakness, simply and point and shoot.

[@Changderson]

That said, I imagine you can pre-set the white balance? Set it low and experiment?

[@marieta.s]

I believe you either get to use filters or shoot in log and color grade it in post. At what depths do you plan using it?

[@rickpost2846]

so to set the white balance you only need a white paper for example to let all the colers shine

[@zerogravity5908]

Hey Vanessa, danke für das super Video. Ich hoffe das bald Kameras mit RAW zu deutlich günstigeren Preisen auf den Markt kommen 🤣. Weißabgleich ist für mich Unterwasser echt ne Katastrophe 😁. Weiter so 👍🏻 AMMMMAZZZIINNG 😎

[@ReefPatrol]

Daaaaaanke ;)

[@edgoodacre5639]

Great video just subscribed. A bit off topic but for snorkelling would you recommend a gopro 7 or osmo action? Not seen any comparison vids on this - underwater will be the primary purpose of my action cam.

[@ReefPatrol]

Both are great action cams. The osmo has a bit better stabilisation, but not sure how well it performes with WB. The Hero7 has ProTunes where you can set a sort of RAW WB that is not too bad actually.

[@realhalle]

Wonderful video Venessa! I started doing white balance from ocher color brain corals which is very abundant in Maldives. Since then I completely dropped the white slate. It makes the blue background really nice. What is your opinion about using this brownish brain corals?

[@ReefPatrol]

You can use warmer tones to do the WB yes, it will give you a richer blue. It just depends on what kind of look you want to go for. Sometimes the warmer grey/skintones make sense sometimes not. Depends on the visibility light depth and scene ;) for macro I manly use grey for wide I sometimes choose sand over grey. Usually I do a testdive to check out the conditions and test the different colors of WB cards and sand etc.

[@PepeArcosPhotography]

such a great tutorial Vanessa thank you very much, What do you recomend when we change our depth quickly. I am freediver in this is my main concern.. shooting scenes from the surface al the way to 15m and up makes almost impossible to have a correct white balance.

[@ReefPatrol]

Actually depending on the lighting condition I d use a redfilter and set the Kelvin to around daylight if you are filming in daylight. Otherwise set a manual WB at the depth you will film most of your time. Will be hard to reset it every 1-2m sure. If you are doing one take then you have to choose at what depth you want the inage to look best and do a test run and pre set it.

[@PepeArcosPhotography]

@@ReefPatrol thank you so much for your reply, daylight WB works ok for shallow works indeed. I haven't tried with red filter yet and so far is always a compromise, as you said, of what depth I want my images to look the best. Great video and looking forward to keep learning from you 😊🙏

[@petrjakubac3749]

Hi thanks for your videos, people can learn a lot from you great job! I would like to ask you one question, because I am starting with underwater video I don't have any expensive camera yet.. so I just use GoPro (7black) and there is option to set WB under water from2300 to 6500K but no manual by using white card... just curious if you have any average numbers how deep what WB or if is better to use auto In this case...?

[@ReefPatrol]

Well as usual it depends. If you want to get best colors I d reccomend to tedt it out. Note on your slate what wb at what depth whilst recording, when check at PC and see what works best. Auto WB I would avoid, because you will get color shifting during your shot. If it doesnt matter to you well stick with auto. If it does, try dialing in daylight so around 5600k and use a redfilter for gopro. This will give you the best color in my opinion. If you stay in the shallow to about 10m. Defently invest in a luttle gopro redfilter. But if you are snorkeling take it off. Will work best bmsomewhere between 3-10m on daylight setting.

[@petrjakubac3749]

@@ReefPatrol thank you

[@ReefPatrol]

@@petrjakubac3749 welcome :)

[@WaterlineShorts]

Great content as usual. You touched on cameras that film in raw which is an unlikely option for most mere mortals. What codec do you recommend and would you recommend shooting in S log. It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on this considering most divers are recreational video makers and not working in film.

[@ReefPatrol]

Yeah I touched on raw so one knows these are out there ;) tho blackmagic habe a small raw capable camera and for sure we will see more cheaper cameras with raw in the near future.. hopefully 😎📽 V log, C log, S log,... of course this is a great option! But it just totally depends. If you shoot in thoose you need to know your way around colorgrading, also setting focus and exposure can be challenging too especially if you dont habe a monitor and that can display luts. So as this is a beginners series, I would not start with log just yet. I will cover log and everything later btw :) this will be a whole episode. I usually use a natural color profile and dile down contrast saturation and sharpness a bit and try to get the best colors and exposure. Also it depends for who and what I shoot. If best quality is the goal then I will shoot in 400mbs 4k and 24p.

hi vanessa what white balance would i set onto my gopro for this

[@coposss5201]

Thank you for this video, can’t imagine how helpful it has been for me. Im seeking for your advice with a problem I’m having. Recently I bought a Sony A6700 and a housing for underwater video. When I try to perform the custom white balance it goes to 9900K and a red tint. Do you know what’s happening? Out of the water that feature of the camera works flawlessly. Should the white balance be done with a red filter? Thank you Best regards

To my opinion, and i use white Fins :-) i got the most and best Videos with a gopro 7 or 3 black, easy to use and with a slightly light on top...most impressive.. Also use a Iphone 12/15 in any housing---challenging, because of all possible settings under water... The manual white balance does not seem to be feasible...

[@garaheboxer6763]

Hello, I have an SJ8PRO, and used it to shoot my freedive sessions. Somehow, the color temperature changes erratically to different temps, mid shot. does this have anything to do with white balance? I set it on auto.

[@bunyipdan]

Thanks for the great tutorial........just not sure why you only used 30 seconds out the 17 minutes to tell us that we should use a grey card......can you elaborate on what the issues are using a homemade laminated card (too reflective?), do you have a grey scale value to use for the grey white balance card, is there any point in using a primary colour reference card in a shot to help post processing colour balance? Cheers

[@ReefPatrol]

If you use laminated ones they are toooooo reflective and the surface is not equalilly lit. So any grey card that is plastic will work that you can buy for whitebalance. If you have a color checker sure use that in the begining of the recording of each clip, then you can do a proper color correction :) Also any uw camera store can advise you on grey cards ;)

[@alaafahmy8146]

@@ReefPatrol please elaborate on the meaning of a Color Checker. is this some kind of a color palette to photograph underwater before shooting?

[@harleymeister1]

Hi. I shoot a lot of video with the Panasonic GH5S and rely on preset white balances. I use Keldan lights rated at 5500k when diving deeper than 20 ft. At deeper depths everything is blue unless I am close. At some point, as you go deeper the color will never be there in a wide shot. Do you have experience putting red filters between the sensor and lens to help correct for this? Filming with Gates Housings, I got spoiled from the flip down diopter. Thanks

Does shooting video in V-Log help with bringing back lost colours in underwater footage, similar to filming in ‘raw’?

[@betoley3913]

Do you need a polarising filter on a gopro. I’m trying to do some fish filming in a shallow clear river, but the water is showing up like it’s opaque, losing all depth of field and detail. Colour is the least of my problems. I would appreciate any advice.

[@elaineross9365]

Yet another great video. Solid advice and well explained. I'll admit I'm lazy with WB and more often set kelvin manually and tweek in post. Gonna spend a day with my grey card and stop being lazy! I've used red filter on camera shallow but stopped using it when I moved to using video lights, so I'm really looking forward to the next episode. I use Sony and found the red filter cut out too much light, hence the reason I stopped using it. I did look into blue filters for video lights but again loosing a stop of light put me off. After your next episode I'm guessing the filter issue something I'll have to revisit.

[@ReefPatrol]

But the Sonys have great low light, so bunping up ISO shouldnt be an issue! If the redfilter cuts out tooo much light get a less dense one. Defently worth it! :)

[@Michael-ps7ji]

For photography, is it better to set auto white balance on your dive, or will I get equivalent in post, since I am shooting raw? I saw what you mentioned in the video, just want to make sure. Just trying to decide what my priority should be. Thanks!

[@ReefPatrol]

In then shallows with enough light auto should be fine. I dont really shoot stills so for sure an expert will see this and answer :) with raw you can change WB a lot but it for sure would help to do a WB anyhow. With strobes this will be different for sure too.

[@simon1234567ful]

Not sure but when photographing in raw picture profiles (portrait, true, vivid, standard etc) are deleted when uploading into lightroom. Maybe its the same for WB so it would make no difference when shooting raw. But im not sure just guessing. (At the end of the day WB is also just digital just like exposure etc. So its digitally enhancing reds. Same thing happens when you do it in LR or PS... a red filter is different though because youre actually adding something. Same priciple as turning up iso or adding a light) my two cents. Not sure if its correct though. Maybe just try and see what works :)

[@pampigwo]

I've been using my dive slate. But only for UW photography, I didn't know it really applied to UW Videography. is it necessary to do a white balance on night dives? I do a lot of night dive photography. Thanks a lot for this outstanding video BTW

Well nightdives are waaay simpler ;) set the WB to the Kelvin value of your lights and you should be good to go. Manly they are daylight so you can also set the WB to the little sunshine ;) so Daylight. Let js know how it went 📽😎

Hello, I am using the little white plastic piece that is on the tank of my G-16 cam to soften the flashlight, and I put it against my cam so it fills the whole frame before I manually set the WB. Usually I am doing this in a horizontal way. I remarked that then on the computer the sand at the bottom/floor of the sea spot is often too white (almost light pink). Any advice? should I orientate my cam towards the bottom of the sea spot before I set the WB?

[@ReefPatrol]

Try setting the WB in the direction you are filming and also do the wb with a bit of distance to your camera. Perhaps use a bigger sate. If it still doesnt look nice do the wb on the sand. This will get rid of the pinkish look, but only if the sand is close to you and not in the deep.

Great video, thanks ! It helps a great deal ! One question though (I'm pretty new to this)… Once we've reached the intended depth of the dive, should I do the manual white balance with my dive torch ON (as I will probably use it to shine some light on the subject) or OFF, to set the manual wb to the ambient light / current depth and conditions ? ( I am using an Olympus TG-4 in its dedicated PT-056 housing and a hand-held 1000 lumen torch light, and I mostly take photos, not videos) Thanks again for your video and your answer ;-)

[@skaltube]

@Olivier La Buse I often get mixed lights, as there often is light from the surface (I dive mostly in summer time, in the 20 to 45 m area) together with the torch I use to light the subject, but thank you for your time & your answer. I'll give a thought about using the temp of my torch for the wb, and I'll try to find the other videos about mixed lights. Thanks again, and nice dives !

I know its gonna be the topic of upcoming videos but maybe you can give me a short tip since im leaving very soon for my diving holiday. My Setup: Canon EOS 80D, 2 8" B&J Arms on either side and 1 video light on each side. I have a red filter. My approach was to use the red filter+ custom WB with ambient light for wide shots. For close up/(maybe even macro) shots(/video) i thought i wouldnt use the red filter but bring the lights and either set a custom WB or even keep it on auto since im lighting everything in view with my lights. Does this make sense or is there a better option? (with the red filter everything would turn out red if i bring lights right? or mess with the WB of the background a LOT!) I saw a video on the behind the mask channel where you used red filters and blue filters for the lights. sadly i couldnt find any blue filters for my lights (just red or violet). As shown in the video if i use a red filter with lights everything will be super red... any suggestions/tips how i can achieve the best result with what i have?

[@ReefPatrol]

Redfilter and Ambient Light for Wide work good if not too deep. For Close/Macro you don't have to use a Redfilter. If you dont have Ambient Filter it might get too red. But dont use auto WB! ;) set it either to the Kelvin of your lights usually around Daylight and defently do a manual WB on the dominant light source, so your video lights.

Also depending on how deep you go you will need different dencities and thent how strong your lights are. So a looooot to concider. I would just use it as a test and nothing serious.
