This was awesome! So helpful, I've been considering the GoPro 9 and you sold me!

The microphone on the go pro hero 9 is so underrated it’s truly incredible audio quality

Thank you for doing your video. I was considering getting the GoPro Hero 9 and housing for a scuba trip our family is going on, but wasn't quite sure. You sold us. Thank you again for taking the time to do a great review.

Looking forward to taking the Hero 9 and the underwater case diving the next time I'm on Holiday in the USA. In the mean time I'll just have to settle for the waters around Northern Ireland.

Thanks Steve for the in-depth video while diving with the GoPro 9. Audio sounded pretty good after a few seconds once you surfaced and the water had a second to drain. Been diving with GoPro's for many years. Great cameras for diving especially at night with dive lights attached!!

This was awesome. I just ordered the GoPro 9. Was just telling my wife I want to try it out in the waters out in Catalina. Then I see your video, now it’s a must. Thank you 👍👍

Your video is so awesome 👏 Thank you! I just bought a GoPro 9 for traveling to Maldives from US in May 2nd 😄😄. So excited about that

Hey by chance do know the name of the selfie stick your using

I’ve been trying to figure out if this camera need the housing and you helped me a lot from this video thank you.

This is so so immensely helpful, thank you!

Thank you!

5:26 *Happy birthday to youuuuuu!* happy birthday stranger!

Great video. Learned a few things. Will definitely have to try when I get a gopro.

All these videos show shallow dives, with basically clear waters. It would be useful to have more feedback on more important depths (40-60mt) and with more limited visibility, so as to understand how the small sensor of the GoPro behaves

Great video Steve. Of particular interest was you test of the 'uncased' GoPro9 down to 20m!! .. without any noticeable damage. Nice to know there is a bit of leeway. Cheers from Downunder!

Steve, I always enjoyed diving the dive park when I lived in California. Even though I use video lights when I am filming underwater, I would be interested on watching you edit this footage. I have never used the flat underwater. Guess you didn't see the many resident Wreckfish (Giant Black Seabass) while there. Thanks for the content.

Thank you so much for this! This is so helpful and easy to follow!

Video and audio looked and sounded great Steve! Excellent information about the Hero 9 capabilities! I'm a bit surprised the colors popped so much underwater in the kelp forests without using lights. That was a most unusual stand-up or swim-up you did to Sig-Out. WELL DONE!

You can edit 5k video in IOS with LumaFusion.

Hey Steve, great review. Wondering how you feel about the camera now, more than a year later. Any issues, problems? I'm looking into picking one up. I've seen a lot of negative reviews about audio popping issues, touch screen issues etc.

Awesome video! So that’s what you see in front of the Casino at Catalina? Wow! Footage turned out great. I gotta head over there! 👍👍

Great video Steve! Brilliant underwater footage and an impeccable presentation! Thank you. ⭐️👍

No one going to talk about the happy birthday? Lol

Saltwater is not the best friend for the gopro. make sure you rinse it off in fresh water when you're done. I just cooked my H8 in the Bahamas. luckily the GP subscription is getting me to the H9 now.

Thank you

Two years ago I went snorkeling and rented a GoPro Fusion without a housing. Every video sucked. I think I might go with a normal GoPro and a housing next time

Thats good stuff Steve, thanks for sharing!

Such an awesome video thank you!

So if I need housing for gopro wouldn't be just good idea to take phone under ocean with solid cover housing why need gopro take iphone

Would you recommend this camera for just light snorkelling and maybe some diving. Would just love to take some photos off the fish and videos. Or save some money and get the 8 ?

Awesome. What settings you used for this underwater clip. It’s so perfect

Great Video Steve!

Hang on a minute - the sea fan at 6:46 is lit with lighting - what lighting???

Excellent video

I had a vivitar underwater camera. It was rated to 15m, at 25m it cycled through the modes until I came up. Excellent review.

Thank you. Nice tutorial. What is the track you used for the background music during your dive? Mesmerizing..

Are the settings you recommend still good to use if you don’t want/don’t know how to do post-video/photo touch ups.

Thank you!!

I always want to use it in my KZfaq videos but I was afraid.... But no more

Thanks for the vlog!

How come my hero 9 can I lying go up to 2.7k resolution

Thanks Steve great

I looks like I am watching national geographic. Well done 👏

I just bought mine 2 days ago 'go pro 9' but the battery didnt last for atleast one hour😪😪

Thank you very much 🤙🏼👊🏼🌊🎥

Having just received my Hero 9 and underwater housing, I’m feeling disappointed that you can’t change the settings when in the dive case. Going from a 4 to a 9 this is very disappointing as I can change all the settings on the 4!

were do you get like that protective case on the go pro when u used it

You recommend using an extending pole. The problem would be how do I take a photo with the pole extended out 30”? Any ideas. Thanks. Very Good Video. Don

I got water damage in salt water , annoyed !! I will always use the case going fwd !!!

Where did you buy your floating selfy stick?

What do you have against showing how to open housing?

Nice video. What was your setting for sharpening?

Great video, and wonderful footage of the dive spot in Catalina - thanks for sharing! Can you comment as to which selfie stick you had? Thanks again!

For snorkeling u are advidine 5k with 30?

You didn't mention filters, which may have been helpful, but for me thinking about changing my gear your video was really helpful, thanks.

Can we use GoPro9 in the rain without housing protection?

Hi! Im really excited about starting to use my GoPro Hero 9 and thank you for the information. I was curious if you could give me tips in regards to post tho. Im about to purchase a computer to do editing instead of my iPad pro and wondered if you had any recommendations on computer and editing software. Thank you again!

hi Steve, thanks for the video, i have a question, did it ever happened to you that while underwater, the H9 only records sound? its a bit frustrating when i get back home to check my videos, and its already the 2nd time it happens, a bunch of sound files instead of the gopro Mp4... any advice or solution? ive check settings already but theres nothing there. would it be a shortcut like pressing the record button for a bit of time, or just a quick tap... by the way the only setting i have changed is the screens off during record, and my preset image mode. let me know, if you have any advice, thanks

Hi! I just got a gopro9 and I was confused about how to use it underwater. So, basically, you are saying that if I am not going deeper than 10m, I don't need to use a case? Also, can it be used in any water? Thank you.

Can you help with recommending a floating selfie stick for diving with a GoPro?

Impressive

Stick price??

List of accessories and where to get them?

Hi Steve. If you use a red filter, would you still recommend the same settings such as flat, 4k and 30? And what about the white balance, no need to go 5500k then right? Lastly, since you did this video over 2 years ago, would you say that now the newer iPhones can play back the 5k? Thank you!

Hey Steve, Thanks for bringing the nice video. Can we use Go pro 10 under water without any protective cover?

Is it possible to access the media to check the pictures that I have taken, without removing the camera from the housing? I could never figure out how to do that, so I always can only check if a picture is good after getting to the surface :(

Love the video! You earnt a sub

Awesome video

Hi steve, so it‘s no need to buy an extra red filter to go diving with all the settings on the gopro hero 9?

Great video! Do you need a case when snorkeling?

About how many hours battery life can the hero9 shoot in 5k?

Which pole are you using?

I just bought mine after saving for it for some time now, and since its a lot of money where I come from, I am so SCARED TO TEST IT under water...

Thanks pro!

Hello... can you tell me which brand and type handle you are using at 1:00? I can’t seem to find a handle that is usable in water AND extendable like the one you’re showing.

Thanks for the video. Any problems with it overheating in a case on a scubadive?

Nice review! May I ask what handle this is? I can’t find one both floating and extended.

Hey Steve great video! Question, do I need to set some things on my Go Pro9 before submerging it into the water without a housing? Or it's good to go? Thanks!

Thanks. Have you needed lights for filming underwater with the H9?

So cool .. nice video .. 😁

Great video! Have you tried any straps to your BC or anything? Instead of just the “fishy stick”

How do i avoid the water on lens issue when i resurface and want to shoot without blobby blurry things? Is there no way to do that?

Which selfish stick do u use that extended and float

Is the self extension saltwater ready?

did you have a red filter or everything was fix at post?

if you ar a diver i recomend netral boen camera if you luse your camea at 100 f you will newer go up and find it after

Impressive! So,You shot that with no filters?

Right when that music started underwater, I thought of Nemo

The backsound music when you was diving what's the title n artist??

Where did you buy the stick?

Thanks great tips I'm going tomorrow is might not find a selfie stick that floats in time Might need to find one that I can tie to my wrist

What's the music you used at 6:05 ?

You got links to the selfie stick or the goggles 🥽

Thank you for sharing #Angkol J

👍

wow im so worried to dip my GoPro 10 inside the sea but thank you

3:50 that's the largest thumb nail i've ever seen o.o

Go pro: nice Go pro underwater 100% nicer

🤩🤩🤩

Damn dude, looks like you got the brew shakes.
