Hi all!

I want to shoot some videos when I'm scuba detecting. I just bought a Gopro 4 and a pair of Light & Motion Sola 3000 lights. I will put the Gopro on a Helmet and the lights will use loc-line arms, placed on each side of the helmt.

Do I need to use a red filter on the Gopro when I'm using the lights?

Hope someone can help me as I am a total newbie in underwater video and photography....

LOL, it's almost as if you can never go too slow while filming underwater! That is one of the harder parts to master, just how fast to pan the camera shot. It looks like already nailed the hardest part, STEADY holding the camera. Most peoples first videos are shaky-shaky. Yours looked really steady.
