Thx for the Feedback! Exactly this setting. I am really afraid that heat will cause a damage because it’s getting really got - even for touching…1. For how Long are you using your Camera Like This? 2. using The external monitor makes this Problem of overheating Completely disappear? Thx in Advance

I have recently started using the EMWL system and am experimenting with how I can reduce or eliminate floating particles between the three different elements. I bought the Nauticam Filtering Sleeve and am not happy with this option, as floating particles still get inside, or it is so tightly bandaged that I can no longer properly operate the air bubbles by turning the wheel to release them. The Nauticam EMWL Water Jacket Set seems a bit expensive to me at around 650 euros... Apart from that, I also keep changing the front element underwater! I do a lot of muck diving from the beach and often there are a lot of particles in the water. Maybe someone has some practical tips or advice?

I have come to an agreement with the camera overheating (filming in 4k/100p), but I still wanted to ask if there are any tips and tricks on how to get around the problem. I don't like the idea of simply bypassing the warning by changing the setting in the menu, as I find that the camera gets very hot and I'm afraid that it will be damaged in the medium term! As far as I understand, most of the heat comes from the screen! To what extent would an external monitor/external recording help? I look forward to your feedback!

Thanks for all the help from all sides!!! Back to my orginal topic: With the sun shades, I managed to eliminate reflections completely. The only problem with muck diving was that I ended up scooping up sand in front of me when taking pictures close to the bottom... And of course, you can't get as close to the critters as before... I also find the lighting a little less optimal with the sun shades – I think there is more backscatter in the final photo...

I've heard of people buying their license via VPN from Turkey and saving money that way?!

Thanks for the feedback! i will give it a try soon!

Thank you for your example work and explanation. How would you remove the EMWL reflection parts in the photo I marked in photoshop? With a "clone" tool? I work with Gimp and there is a "heal" and "clone" tool but I think it is very time consuming and feels like kind of "painting the photo"...

Thank you for the compliment! With the blue parts I agree it´s easy but I find editing the part of the anemone's arms quite challenging to do it perfectly and it s time consuming... May I ask how you would approach the editing in general and what software you are? And how long will you spend on these parts editing to get a proper result? Here is another example for a reasonable photo but terrible reflections on the diver....

Thanks also for thise response to my problem! During my last dive, I had the shades attached to a carabiner and used them whenever I felt like it... Unfortunately, this means I can't illuminate nearby objects very well... But otherwise, if everything worked perfectly, it would be too easy ;-) Thanks for the props - I am a beginner with this system by step by step I am getting closer to shots I am happy with :-)

Thanks a lot! I got now shades and so far I cant reproduce these reflections but just did two dives...

Hi Davide, thanks for your tip! I am wondering: Was it also with an EMWL or in a non wet lens and a normal port? So you covered the macro lens?! Thanks in advance

Hi Luko, thanks for your response: I had also more the feeling of a reflection but I dont know how a real reflection could be possible... I will try the sun shade first and guess this is the solution... But I post in here if I can get rid of this with a sun shade! shooting directly in the sun was by the way no problem...

Hi John, thanks a lot! For me it feels like a mirrored image in my photo of the front element of the port and not just flare. I will get a sun shade and see how it works with distance and this ugly effect...

Hello, attached you find a photo with reflexions (I marked them in addition). Can you tell me where this is comming from and how to avoid? Just a sun shade missing? Was the sun in the edge a problem? Is somehow light coming between relay and front unit? I photographed with Sony A1 in Nauticam Housing, Focus Unit with 67mm bayonett, Relay Lens and 130 degree front element, Strobes clear behind the front element of port. Thanks in advance
