saw a friend shooting videos with a go pro 5 and an 8 and mustmusic i was impressed by the quality and the white balance of the go pro, was pretty much straightforward.
Anyone using go pro for tank videos ( both in tank and out of tank videos) any tips on those for tank videos and ease if use and quality of the videos your getting please?
 
I have thought about doing this but have not seen it done, I'm sure someone on here will chime in with their experience.
 
Curious as well
 
i have had the gopro hero 4, 6 and now gopro 9 and they are great for tank use, both in an out of the tank. It does a good job picking up blues and not over saturating, and you can adjust the white balance from the camera.

This is shot with a gopro hero 6, little to no editing. in-tank footage starts at 1:40. Still need to play with my new hero9.

Hello do you use any filter for your go pro hero 9? Or do you just adjust the white balance?
 
I didn't use a filter, and don't remember exactly, but probably just tweaked the white balance a bit.

Edit: just noticed you said on the GP hero 9. I have yet to use it yet on the tank, so im not sure if it needs any tweaking yet. This was from a Hero 6 black.
