Video rig buoyancy
@Chris Ross I found 1 piece of INON mega float 70 €, 4 pieces STIX jumbo float at 50 €. I found 4 pieces FLEX-ARM float at 30 €. By the way I wonder which is the best setti g in arms I.e. number, lenght and so on. To solve my doubts I wrote the post.

Video rig buoyancy
Thank you everybody. I was looking for something not too expensive, such as float foam for arms. In your opinion which lenght I should choose for arms? 2 or 4 arms? 12 or 18 or 24 cm or wich combination of them? Thanks. Giacomo P.s. here is a picture of my rig. 18 cm arms and a couple of chinese lights.

@Elvandar : have you estimated your rig's weight above and underwater? My rig's weight is 3 kg while 1,36 kg underwater, fresh water. It's a bit difficult to manage arms and diving torches. I was thinking about floating kit for a couple of arms. I'm not still sure to use two couple of arms... Ciao, Giacomo

Hello, a question for experts. Is it useful to get buoyancy with floating kit? Or superfluous with action cam. Let me know, thanks Giacomo

Thank you all, nice to have such explanations

@eocean-eu I have a couple of diving lights at 5.5 - 6K kelvin. I reduced to 5K kelvin the temperature setting of my GP12 to compensate a reddish tint of the video footage, following the indications of @Davide DB . Exactly the opposite of the bluish you say. May be I didnt understand your post.

Have you received back the AOI lens? Did you test such lens with the above said labs commands? Bye

I have GP12 at the moment

So we come back at the topic :-) I appreciated the suggestions provided by@Davide DB so far. I also use a couple of diving lights getting to much red due to both torch diving temperature and gopro wrong white balancing. I'll try to do my best

Thanks @Nando Diver . Do you use dive lights wuth such presets?

Very interesting matter. I'll try asap. The QRControl app is a bit confusing about command parameters. Good night Giacomo

Okay, let me know @Nando Diver . I'm going to a dive safari on september 22 and your feedback about wide lens will be very appreciated. One more thing about WBLK setting. David of GPlabs confirmed me that GP12 also allows preset name WBLK without using related QRcode command. Anyway, you wrote $PRES="0,WBLK" to enable WB locking, I thought 1 instead of 0. What do you think about that? Bye

I attached the gopro labs developers. The preset name feature also works with GP12. Fine, no QR Code. Now testing occurs, Red Sea cruise within two weeks hopefully.
