I am not sure I've understood the purpose of the blurry adjustment in post.

Can you post also the clip with unadjusted blurry?

Heres a 240fps clip

Notice the focus diference between the fish school that are closed to the camera (in focus) to the others further away (not in focus)

Ive adjust the blurry in davinci to be more noticeable in the clip.

I have the GR140Pro and the G165II and my understanding, so far, is:

• No lens - focus between 50cm to 6m - perfect for general underwater landscape

• GR140 - focus between 15cm to 2,5m - perfect for walls/reefs wide sceneries

• G165II - no reference available but I expect something between close-up and macro. The question is how deep is its DOF. I hope for something like 10-60cm, anything less would not be for me.

I will test the three configurations and see but in principle I like the idea of having some light softness outside the focus range because it directs the view on the subject. Maybe because I come from photography background, I have never been a fan of infinity focus, on the contrary, I always considered it as a defect.

I believe the M1 has to be used differently than other action cams, paying more attention to focusing and framing, just like in photography, but that it not necessary a negative thing and I can understand that for someone it could be a problem. It is not easy to change the way we are used to do things.

Of course, for now these are all theories, until I bring all below the surface and test them. One more week to go.

The Mission 1 pro dynamic range is capable of doing much better than the GP13 like ambient with or without natural light, but M1PRO has more like cinema softness image that dont work well underwater.

My advice, take a backup camera...the GR140 will help but will be far from perfect..

Also any other video mode outside of gplog2 will be waste of time in underwater Mode, increase the resolution to 300Mbps using gopro labs FW, Max ISO 800..
