Action Camera Underwater Video Basics shows how to capture fantastic video and turn it into engaging sequences.

The book focusses on small action cameras – the format which includes devices made by GoPro, SeaLife and Paralenz – all of which have more depth to them than one might first imagine. Award-winning underwater cameraman Jeff Goodman shows how versatile they can be and how to get the best out of them.

Every one of the 200+ images in the book was shot with an action camera.

The book looks at important camera features and cuts through the dizzying array of equipment choices. Homing in on what is useful for underwater videoing, Jeff then provides the vital background knowledge key to achieving great results, time after time, whatever device you use:

• How to avoid the typical mistakes made by many budding underwater filmmakers.
• Capture better shots and turn them into engaging sequences.
• An introduction to the editing process – simple techniques to make the best videos.

Jeff also explains how to use action cameras to take better underwater stills, both in the water and later from the video which has been shot.

A lifetime of essential underwater video know-how in one handy book.
