Hi. Great review. Very informative for us newbies. Have you did similar with a Sony HX80. I have a Meikon housing on its way and looking for some setting tips before going on vacation next month.
Hello dear Can I change the shutter speed location from control wheel to another button Because underwater I can’t use the control wheel in m mode I need to control the shutter and aperture In the housing I can’t spin the control wheel Thanks
VI cause of the colour range of the mark 6 (as mentioned in the video). but its only marginal. if you own a mark 5 i wouldnt ugrpade to 6. Maybe wait to mark 7.
For 2022 the Sony RX100 VII camera seems a bit outdated...😞 the lack of 4K 60 FPS and small still files leave me feeling I need more...if there was an updated version I would but one right away
Hi, amazing video. I have a question. Can this cajwra go underwater wothout the underwater housing? I just would like to use it in a pool portrait, but can't find anywhere if i need a housing for it. Thank you
That housing doesn't offer a way to add a hotshoe to the top. We can help you find an alternate solution though! Send us an email at sales@backscatter.com and we will work something out for you.
Ehh, I don’t do underwater pics but am around water a lot doing whitewater and I’ve tried the Nikon W300 and the TG5 and not super impressed with the photos out of them. Been looking at a camera like the Sony and then adding a waterproof housing versus finding a camera that’s already waterproof.

They are so "professional".. they can't even mention what's the custom white balance range (2500K-9900K.. 12000K...15000K?). That is one of the most important aspects when doing underwater videography. Commercial crap that serves no real purpose to decide if this camera is better underwater.. and especially if it's any better of the RX100V and the RX100VA.
@@backscatteruw Jeez, I thought this video was incredibly well done and the article very informative. Helpful all around. Keep doing what you're doing!
We always export videos at the highest quality for the best representation of the image, but unfortunately UA-cam compression sometimes has an adverse effect on this.
Omg in 2:15 the battery goes so fast
Would you recommend this for uw video as well?
For sure, but if shooting with only natural light you will be limited to a depth of about 35-40 feet before the white balance will hit it's limit.
Also, you can check out the Salted Line underwater housings for RX100 III-VII cameras, you will be surprised!

how did you do it can you share with me , thank you
Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!
Hello dear
Can I change the shutter speed location from control wheel to another button
Because underwater I can’t use the control wheel in m mode
I need to control the shutter and aperture
In the housing I can’t spin the control wheel
Thanks
What is the black plate/arms you are using? I like that trigger! Thank you.
can i have question between rx100V & rx100Vi which one better for underwater photo!?

@@roaming_domi7717 so now mark 7 has released, would you upgrade it?
@@siowclaire5033 Can't give you an answer yet, haven't used the mark 7 yet. Maybe Backscatter or someone else can answer this questions.
Sorry. :-/
@@roaming_domi7717 The advantage of the RX100V(A) over the VI (and VII) is that the 24-70 is F1.8 at 24mm instead of F2.8.

does the new rx100 vii fit in the nauticam housing for the rx100 vi? They have the same body dimensions and button placement...

Thank you
This camera does require a housing to go in the water. It is not waterproof in any way on its own.
You cool! Your video helped me! From Russia with love)
How do you add a hotshoe to the topofthe ikelite housing for the rx100 vii? I like to put me gopro there.

Excellent Presentation.
Great vid bro
does the Nauticam housing with the rectangle port work for in/out shots?
Not very well. You really want a domed lens and the widest field of view possible for split shots.
excellent thx !
Dude your missing the point of the additional cost with the Sony. The TG5 you don’t have to buy those VERY expensive accessories
they are just trying to sell their overpriced housings.

what about the canon g7x mk2 as alternative?

the video image is too poor, you need to fix it more

Title is misleading. This is NOT an 'underwater camera'.
