Found them and checked them, thanks. What camera are you using and how did you mount it?

[eckart]

I'm using a canon sd 780 is with a housing... Check out www.freedivers.weebly.com to see how I mounted the camera on the gun..

Lekker vids man some good viz there at betty's hey!!!!

[eckart]

yep, just amazing hey! I'm working on a clip with some crackers that i saw too and some cryfish... but I'm having some technical issues that i need to sort out...

[greg]

can never be easy dude keep em coming tho...lekker to check vids of the spots you know

[eckart]

I will definately keep them coming... it's great seeing your local spots and the fish that are there.... I'm hoping to have a great compilation soon!

[Maurice]

I had a look at that mount. Do you buy the bracket, or did you make it yourself?

[eckart]

made it myself.. I'm going to start making brackets for camera's too... it's definately better than trying to film and shoot at the same time!

Hey Eckart, what video editing software do you use?

[eckart]

I use windows movie maker.... probably not the best but it works just fine...

[Fishingtaylor01]

Thanks Eckart, I have some nice footage of diving with the cow sharks, in one frame you can see cow sharks, red steenbras, roman, stump and hottentot. I will try my hand at video editing later

[eckart]

wow, where was that?

[Fishingtaylor01]

Just past Cape Boat, there is a sign saying no spearing. If you swim straight out to the edge of the kelp and look from there you will be amazed at the fish life. Here are a few pics I took the last time I dived there.

[eckart]

very keen to go dive with you next time you head out there...give me a shout...
082 577 9162

[Fishingtaylor01]

Will definitely do that, it is best to wait for the water to clean up a bit so you can get some nice footage. I you come Simon's Town way and are keen for a dive give me a shout 0727601767.

[Fishingtaylor01]

Put this clip together, let me know what you think.

[Fishingtaylor01]

Went for a dive just off pappiesbank. Managed to find a few shoals of small galjoen, but nothing size. The water was 14 degrees and very strong. Resorted to scratching for a few sinkers. Took some video, but very poor quality because of the surge... will upload it later today.

[Fishingtaylor01]

Shoal of small Galjoen at Cape Maclear, sorry about it being in black and white... camera was on the wrong setting.

[eckart]

Great clips! how big where the files when you uploaded them?

[Fishingtaylor01]

The first 1 was 70mb and the 2nd was 30, I tried to make them as small as possible, but still viewable.

[eckart]

doesn't that eat alot of your internet usage when you upload it to youtube?
