The most cat like shark there is over the catshark lol. Awesome you were able to get so close to them you could probably count the people who've done that on your hands
Great footage. I understand you can’t use lights when shooting the thresher sharks, but can you still have lights on the camera to light up other critters if the sharks aren’t close?
Hey its not overbuilt. There aren't any vehicles on the island(no polution). Houses built are very traditional without heavy machinery. Its definitely worth the long way there. Local are extremely friendly and diversity and corals are very rich in marine life
Nice video! I am planning a trip to Malapascua next March and I found your video and content informative. Can you use your video lights with the Thresher Sharks?
@@lazydivermel and you did not use a red filter either. How much post processing did you have to do with the videos? Also, what is the depth where the thresher sharks are?
@shotsbyscott6243 quite shallow less than 18m I guess.. as for post processing yes it's painful without lights.. but because its shallow it's easier with sunlight
@@lazydivermel The GoPro does not work well at 18m without lights is what I have found. Have you tried a red filter? Also, found red filters at this depth made the scene to dark and had to raise the ISO to a high level which made the video too grainy and unusable for my taste.
Amazing Video! Mind to share about your video light model? And how does it compared to TrustFire DF50? Looking for light setup on my GoPro for leisure recording yet not making a hole on my bank account... Many thanks!
Hi there thank you! Im using DF50 for this video. And have been using it for 2 years already. So far the pros are its durable (if u replace the ball mount to a screw and ball mount 2pc set). Type C charging. Bright for close focus wide angle. And the cons are that. 1. The original 1pc ball mount might break if you over tighten it and once its broke u probably going to end up buying a new one set 2. It is heavy u need float arms to compensate 3. Still need to color correction a fair bit for the videos.
@@JellyJofool yes indeed its a good option. Just dont forget to buy and replace the original ball mount. With those 1inch ball mount with adjustable 1/4 inch screw (2 separate piece). Thank me later. The orignal ball mount if u overtighten it with your hand you can break it and it is stuck inside the torch forever
Haha they are really cute with those big eyes. Generally thresher sharks are very shy. Hence when they did not see me.. I swim forward.. when they are looking I breathe out very little bubble, stay low to sea bed and don't look eye to eye.. this is how I get close to them
