On the downside, it's more than a little clunky - half a dozen or so key presses where Canons make do with one.

On the A6300 at least, you can custom configure a button to go directly to the white balance menu. Saves one key press.

I have done over 200 dives doing video with red filter on Sony. I use SRP go pro filter taped to the front of the lense. You have to constantly adjust custom white balance, but there isn’t really any other good way.

i have the Archon big video lights... but they produce a harsh unnatural look. A couple months ago I spent a week diving with a guy with fancy Keldan lights. Once in a while I set my white balance to his lights.. they are awesome.

Why do you have to constantly adjust the white balance? Is it because of the depth changes?

May I please get some links to your videos?
