Thank you for the quick reply. It seems it comes down to theQuote:

lights for no more than $20K.
Part of my delay is I feel as soon as I buy something, a month or two
later, something better will come out.
I'm beginning to wonder if a larger housing would be beneficial to
creating stability as far as camera movement goes. So the camera
size is not a concern. I love macro and that is a must.
You mentioned in one of your previous post, software you use
to take the shake out of the video. You had just posted a video of
a trip in Indonesia and your shot from the moving boat was steady.
Remember the name of that software?
Thank you for the time.

Smoothcam is one of the filters in Apple's Final Cut Pro. It to some degree stabilizes a shot by centering what is supposed to be center, so now the outside frame shakes around. To remove that, it digitally zooms in which causes a bit of a loss of resolution depending on how much it zooms in.
I am forgetting the Red and setting my sights on the vaporware Scarlet. At 3k and 120 frames per second, slo-mo would be good, and if one captured footage is shot optically zoomed out 50%, one could step on it harder in Smoothcam, so that if it digitally zoomed in 50%, you would in theory still be left with 1.5k resolution.
My housing is large, but I am not sure about the stability part....there is far more surface area to get pushed around by current and surge, I think one is better off perfecting technique....and the airlines are killing me on baggage.
I couldn't agree more on the technique. I was thinking that it being heavier,Quote:

my housing is easily swayed by the current and sometimes one can't hold it

would be better $$ but we give and take.
I'm sure glad I don't travel like I use to. I'm sure you've learned the ins and
outs for each airline and move through relatively hassle free, but the $$ for
this and $$ for that.. Ahhh!
The interesting thing about 5k, is that is Imax resolution, and if our pipe dreams came true (for some they do), then by all means shoot 5k. Scarlet is roadmapped to pan out at 25k, or 5 times Imax resolution. I like the 3k price though, about $3500, so they claim. lol
Since most of us set our videocams to be slightly negatively buoyant, I am not sure how extra mass would help. I think it would be cheaper to improve my technique, and shoot more footage, sooner or later I accidently come up with something usable. ;)
Yes, shoot more. When I feel I've shot enough, I shoot some more. At least aQuote:

Now, who has the housing for Scarlet?
Thanx,
Amphibico will as soon as the vaporware materializes.
