The Rapture of the Deep | Maldives with the Panasonic GH5 [VIDEO]

Video By Ambassador Matt Jacobs

This beautiful footage was shot over 5 days in the Maldives using the Panasonic Lumix GH5 in Ikelite 200DL Underwater Housing # 71305. Matt shoots exclusively natural light photography with an internal color correcting filter and custom white balance with each change of depth.

Matt used the Panasonic Leica 8-18mm f/2.8-4.0 DG Vario-Elmarit ASPH, Panasonic 7-14mm f/4 G ASPH, and Panasonic 8mm f/3.5 G Fisheye lenses with an 8" Dome Port.
