Hi Folks, Apr 30
Could those of you with experience doing UW video take a moment to give
some advice?
I'm a newbie at this and have a modest budget to get started with (about
$2-3k). I'm hoping to run benthic surveys (%cover, coral diversity,
urchin abundance) as well as survey fish diversity (perhaps abundance).
I'd like to have lights as well. I don't think I need (or can afford) a
HD camera initially. I'm also wondering about video analysis software
for a PC or Mac. I've heard about the Top Dawg
(http://www.topdawgvideo.com/) but assume many of you have experience
with other systems that I should also consider. If you would, could you
email me to discuss?
Thanks, Brad
