Hunting CuttleFish

[Mantadude]

Hello,

I had an amazing experience of doing a night dive with this cuttlefish. It used my lights to hunt. It was amazing to watch. I was using the 100mm macro lens. So as you can image handholding it in water is a bit of a challenge to keep focus. But I did my best.
Enjoy!

Thanks for watching it. The key to smooth underwater footage is having a balanced camera...with all the lights etc... And having it neutrally bouyant. That isn't so much my issue. It's just that the macro lens has such a small DOF. IT is very difficult to keep in focus even if I have holding still.
