Hey, The video feed (Adv Electronics package with RPi and a fathom X) is REALLY green. Is there a way to color correct the feed or adjust the gamma?

I get similar green color in NZ waters but I find it is in shallow water no deeper than 10m. Makes potentially good video almost unusable. Life in the oceans,I suppose. Oh well

Your best option for color correcting underwater video is either through the camera’s settings or by post processing the video ( such as demonstrated in this video ). I recommend you avoid using a filter. Filters reduce the amount of light to the camera’s sensor, and in underwater video this is a ma…

uau it´s really spectacular what you can do with the post precessing video. Thanks Paul

Hey Rusty, Sorry for the delayed response, I was in a remote area without stable internet. I’m trying to get a B101 HDMI Bridge so we can run the GoPro as the main camera. That would be an ideal solution. See below for images captured with RPi cam vs the attached GoPro. As you can see, the onboard…

I’ve noticed a distinct green tint added when using the advanced electronics (Raspberry Pi camera) versus the standard electronics (NTSC camera).

[green_purple_2] We have been experiencing a green center as well. This picture is from a depth of about 3 meters in the Saco River in Maine, the water was actually brownish. This is our second Raspberry Pi camera.

We’ve just received the new HD USB cam. I’ll let you guys know how we find it. I’ve also got an HDMI bridge on order so I should eventually be able to provide a comparison between the GoPro as a main camera and the new USB cam. I’m hopeful the new USB cam provides a suitable solution.

@Kraken - Great! Let us know how it goes. Also see here about the cable during installation: New Low-Light HD USB Camera- Short cable - #2 by rjehangir

I just changed from Raspberry camera to the new low light USB camera. It seems to be a lot better in low light, less distorted and sharper. The color saturation on the USB camera does look a little low. How do I adjust this on Windows? Raspberry on the left and USB on the right, low light on top an…

English Channel, Torbay. the green alway has more penetration of sea water where as the reds are lost in the first few centimetres, green can penetrate down to about 1000m. [Life1]

There is no way to do this that I am aware of at the moment. See also How to adjust compression on new HD cam? - #6 by jwalser and USB camera to ROS.
