19/09/2019

To make your ocean exploration more enjoyable and safer, equip yourself with useful tech gadgets as recommended by travel blogger Vinh Gấu.

1. Suunto diving watch

Diving watches are extremely useful devices for anyone who loves scuba diving. Suunto is one of the world's leading diving watch brands, originating in Finland and boasting over 80 years of history.

Currently, there are many different brands of diving watches on the market such as Mares, Aqua Lung, Cressi… but travel blogger Vinh Gấu chose the Suunto D4i Novo because of the following advantages: youthful and fashionable design and colors; Suunto's diving memory is longer, typically around 140 hours of diving (other brands only about 35 hours); usable for many diving styles such as scuba diving, freediving, nitrox diving...

Currently, the Suunto D4i Novo is priced at $499 per unit.

2. Meikon Underwater Protective Case

Underwater protective cases are devices that enclose professional cameras when going deep underwater to shoot videos and photos with the best quality. Meikon offers a variety of models to suit many professional camera brands such as Sony, Fujifilm, Canon… and depths suitable for your planned dive.

Using this underwater protective case is quite simple; you just open the back of the case, put your camera and suitable lens inside, close and lock the back of the case securely, and you're done. All camera adjustments, such as brightness, aperture, shutter speed, etc., can be made from this case.

3. Sony Actioncam FDR-X3000 4K Action Camera

You can take this Sony Actioncam FDR-X3000 to depths of up to 60 meters with the included underwater protective case. With just the press of a button, the Sony Actioncam switches to underwater image processing mode for recording and capturing photos without needing any additional filters. Note that the deeper you go underwater, the less accurate the colors you capture will be (color loss will occur), so you may need filters to help the equipment record colors more accurately. The Sony Actioncam is also equipped with a 4K image processor and SteadyShot optical image stabilization system to help you capture the most beautiful footage of the underwater ecosystem.

The product is priced at $398 per unit.

4. Fishish V6 Drone for Diving

If you've ever thought, "Wouldn't it be great if there was a drone for scuba diving?", then that's now a reality. Last June, QYSEA unveiled the Fifish V6, capable of diving to depths of 100 meters under shore control, boasting 12-megapixel image quality, ultra-wide angle, and 4K video. Another attractive feature is livestreaming to social media, allowing you to share the most exciting moments of your diving trip. With these unique features, the Fifish V6 is suitable for those who enjoy scuba diving, studying marine ecosystems, and more. Currently, underwater drones are still relatively new and not widely available on the market. However, compared to some similar products, the Fifish V6 can be connected to the control device via Wi-Fi instead of a cable, and the drone can easily rotate in six directions and perform slow motion.

The product is priced at $1,799 per unit.

5. Suunto SK7 Underwater Compass

This is a versatile device, not only for tourists but also highly favored by forestry and surveying technicians. The compass has an attached magnifying glass with 4x magnification. It features a fixed incline scale, metric and inch divisions, a spirit level, and a compass needle indicating direction (red for north, black for south, and an arrow for east).

The product is priced at $180 per unit.
