Rental video lights in Tulum?

4 posts
  1. A bit of a weird one but I'm heading out to Mexico in a few weeks and will spend some of my time diving the cenotes from Tulum.

    Im looking for some decent video lights for my dm, to get those nice lit up scenes, the brighter the better!

     

    If anyone has any idea where I could look I'd appreciate it!

  2. No specific ideas, but are you a cave diver? Maybe try the the "proper" cave diving shops as opposed to the dive shops that focus on cenote tours for visiting regular divers, as they will definitely have big cave diving lights for rental and maybe video lights as well. If you're desperate a bit of plastic milk carton as a diffuser over the end of a really bright narrow-beam cave diving light works ok for video.

  3. Hi,
    or check a strobe more with a slave trigger, so your buddy can hold it between diver and wall, to get these shadow shots.
    So only the trigger should be lined up to you, and the strobe is not seen...
    Have fun and great the cenots for me.
    Regards,
    Wolfgang

  4. Thanks guys, gonna email the serious shops and see what's up.
    Not a cave diver myself so the cavern part will have to do (thought it was awesome last time)
