Hi all .  Just got a new camcorder Sony DCR-SR52E,i am going to purchase a housing for it,but i was not sure if any correction filters were needed.
I will only be using the camcorder for snorkeling max depth 5m.
Went on holiday to Egypt 2 years ago and loved it so much,spent more time in the water than in the sun,used my Fuji f30 for still and small videos,but they were limited, but i had some good results,so i would appreciate all the help i can get,wish i was 30 years younger,when i see some of the photography on this site.

Willyboy.

If you stay more shallow than 3 metres a color correction filter should not be needed.
Just for snorkeling sony offers a sports marine pack for their cameras.
