This is my first efforts with the Canon HV30 and the Ikelite housing.
Hope you like it.

Mike, I didn't read your explanatory title to the point of remembering it as I watched your excellent video. While I was watching it, I thought, this can't be this guys first video production, the white balancing, color correction and editing is done really well. Then I went back to the title and I now see it was just your first use of a particular videocam, not your first dive video...that explains it!
Really nice camera and editing work. Even the background music choice was spot on.

Thank you for your kind comments. The HV30 did a really good job, and everything you see is without colour correction, other than a couple of brief scenes. Regrettably, although I have filmed before underwater, I ruined MANY hours of potentially wonderfully footage that was just too shaky, and after pursuing a white tip reef shark for some minutes to keep close, realised subsequently that I had turned the camera to STANDBY when I thought I was filming, and vice versa.
That was great, lovely balance with excellent scene setting and surface shots, I agree, great choice of music and some really, really nice underwater filming. Thanks for sharing.
