With GP13 i was filming much closer to the subject due focus distance, on the Mission 1 pro in certain conditions it might work, but theres always the temptation to get closer and closer to the subject.

Underwater 240fps (opinion at 3m34s in first video)

you can capture details underwater that are impossible to see with naked eye. You got a camera that is able to do high frame rates and you dont test it.

Ive sent you link with original file..see for yourself

Mission 1 PRO Geek Specs source: https://gethypoxic.com/blogs/technical/gopro-mission-1-gp3-image-pipeline?srsltid=AfmBOor-e-oIthDwYXOFHH8EzGzTZNlxCYO8LmyoYK1ITQtIKZ9LK70w

Ive optimized the GP13 with Gopro labs FW + 2 dive lights (5000Lumens) and AOI wide angle lens, it works very well between 10cm and 50cm. 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..

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. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jHAZiEgX94

Just the camera..no lens The GP13 at same distance is fine..

This was snorkeling.... (reduced video speed) is possible to see that the Christmas tree worms are always out of focus https://youtube.com/shorts/olfV4AyEU7s?feature=share

Here nice video https://www.instagram.com/reels/DaWzEVKS2PP/ found this instagram account with m67 adapter & magnifier Divereveryday shop has M67 adapter for M1PRO https://diveveryday.com/m67-lens-adapter-for-gopro-mission1/

Ive spend one week in Koh Tao and another week in Bangkok where i was able to do some tests to the Mission 1 Pro & GP13 and in my opinion the M1PRO has strong limitations without proper underwater lens to get some focus back on. Gp-log2 is amazing for color grading, so much flexibility but the lack of focus is really challenging. Dynamic Range and low light in M1PRO is way better than Gp13 and with right distance is possible to get great scenery images, the weak point of GP13. I want to like the M1PRO but unless some 3rd party manufacturer offer correction wet lens specific for focus distance its waste of time in underwater use.

On the Mission 1 pro has being added range to the already existent Auto and fixed Shutter Range : 1/120 - 1/7680 1/240 - 1/7680 1/360 - 1/7680 Iso Range: 25-100 25-200 25-400 25-800 25-1600 25-3200 25-6400 And now is visible Shutter -iso - ev comp - wb in the top of the screen

I was thinking to test the Divevolk camera link with new Mission pro, the GP3 might be fast enough for 4K live preview (low latency) since is supported. https://community.gopro.com/s/article/GoPro-Quik-Live-Preview?language=en_US

Anyone tried to use the Divevolk camera link Underwater WiFi Signal Transmitter (SeaLink Kit is something else) and use smartphone/iphone has monitor for Gopro 13 while using Gopro Quick app heres a review with TG-6 + Divevolk camera link (divevolk sealink is something else) https://www.anomadspassport.com/sealink-phone-underwater-monitor/ DIVEVOLKDIVEVOLK Camera Link Contact Type Underwater WiFi Signal...Stay connected below the surface with DIVEVOLK’s Camera Link WiFi Transmitter.
