Notes & More Information
Regarding the custom built underwater camera housings described in 'Inside the Deep' by producer Peter Guber: "Al [Giddings] has named his new creation the Petermar, in honor of all the "Peters" working on The Deep [Peter Benchley, Peter Yates, Peter Guber]. The Petermars are small and sleek, housed in shiny Ferrari-red watertight aluminum cases - the photographic counterparts of a sexy new Italian sports car. And they're just as beautiful inside. Al began with compact Arriflex cameras, outfitted them with Panavision lens systems, and then added such refinements as a "dome port"a glass hemisphere over the lens and other optical engineering to compensate for the visual distortions of filming in water. The cameras are electrically driven, capable of high-speed, slow motion, and standard shooting speeds, with complete flexibility of focus and aperture and a wide range of interchangeable lenses. All told, they weigh just seventy-five pounds on land, and in the water, all of eight ounces"!
