Re: Goodbye to UWDV.COM, Hello to Immersive Video Journalist

Jon,

I have been a photographer since the age of 15 - that makes it 30 years now. It just became the same thing over and over. Video is a whole new animal. I just made the transition to a couple of SONY HC7's and a Light & Motion Bluefin HC7 with w/a port and HID lights. I don't use the lights much but I use the housing/w/a port while freediving (did that with my previous SONY/L&M setup).

I was a photoj shooter for 10+ years so I enjoy the challenge of telling a story with images - but now I work as a Solo video journalist and I enjoy not only shooting, but editing and delivering the final project.

Shooting video now gives me the same rush like it was when I shot stills 20 years ago.
