Video Clips Underwater Macro Critters

All the video clips presented on this site are the result of about 6.000 dives in the waters of Indonesia. This archive boasts of more than 350 hours of videos, specialized in the macro range which is Edi’s true passion. On this website, it is only possible to show a small selection of the material, but in case of questions of special interest, there is always the possibility to contact Edi.

Edi owns probably the largest collection of macro-rarities in the world. The meaning and purpose of this site is it, to enable a broader audience to access this very special aspect of marine life. On demand, it is also possible to buy these videos; the price depends on the intended use and the scope of the needed material.

Over the course of his many dives, Edi gained an enormous knowledge about the world under water. I spite of this, it could occur, that certain terms might not be scientifically flawless. Of course, Edi would be thankful for any hint and help to rectify the problem in his thrive for scientific perfection in his video archive.

In addition to its mere value as documentation, Edi gives high value to the artistic aspect of his clips. All the time, he tries new views and sets a special emphasis on new variations in lighting to put his objects in the best focus. The source of Edi’s drive and motivation are his desire and fascination to search and to discover tiny marine rarities and to present these jewels in their best achievable shape/state.

Since 1992, Edi films underwater; in 1996 he turned into a true professional. He improved and expanded his equipment over the time. At the moment, he uses a Sony VX 2000 in a Light & Motion housing that shows the wear of the abundance of his many dives. The lighting equipment is by Light & Motion & Sealux. However, the days of this combination are numbered. A new Sony HDV Z1 already waits for its first task underwater.
