Well we don’t know about grandma (assuming she’s not a diver…) but we are here to\u00a0help you out with your diving friends!<\/p>\n

To make it easier for you, we divided it into price ranges, because we know that the amount you spend on someone on Christmas is how much you love them…. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

In case you’re not a diver, you may not know that colors fade away the deeper you go underwater. Which means all your videos start turning blue. Red filters are great for bringing back some of the “redness” to your videos\/photos and making the colors somewhat more natural. Make sure your friend doesn’t have one already, and if they just got a GoPro, this would be the next thing they intend to get.<\/p>\n

Inon UCL-165 M67 Close-up Lens |\u00a0$178.75<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

This little lens is one of the most popular accessories for underwater available! When shooting little critters underwater, such as Nudibranches, Shrimp or baby fish, most cameras just can’t focus too close on the subject making macro photography hard or impossible.
