Experiences with GoPro Hero 2 in indoor swimming pool?
 

Does anyone in here have any experience with using a GoPro Hero 2 underwater in an indoor swimming pool?
How did it look? Dark, noisy or just bright and OK?
Did you need extra lights shining into the water to get a good image?

If there is good overhead lighting it works ok, but any shadows will be slightly noisy and bright/dark variations can trick the white balance. Do use a flat lens (either Gopros new one or aftermarket) or focus will be very soft.

This was an indoor dive pool good lights but white balance shifted.

Thanks!
Is it possible to disable auto-whitebalance?

Not that I'm aware of.

In case it is helpful, here is the direct link to the English language Hero2 user manual:

Not yet, but the PRoTune firmware update may give some options, as yet not finalized for release.

Okay, thanks for that info.
I don't feel like waiting for it ;-)
So, I'm curious have more people experienced such rapid whitebalanceshifts during a take?
Or does it only happen with pictures?
