Excerpts from Jeff Goodman’s Book Action Camera Underwater Video Basics, Part 6 of 6: Ethics of Filming Wildlife

Filming wildlife underwater requires ethical considerations. Marine animals can feel stress, even if we can’t hear them. It’s important to avoid chasing or disturbing them for better shots. Protecting their environment is crucial; even minor touches can harm coral and marine life over time. Always prioritize conservation and practice good buoyancy control while filming.
