 Virtually all EIS systems assume air is the shooting medium by default. This means that when using EIS on footage shot in water, the lens distortion matrix needs to be adjusted to account for the difference in relative refractive index between water and lens. Gyroflow added this option recently and there is a Labs setting (`DIVE=1`) to enable it for Hypersmooth on Hero 12/13. Virtually all EIS systems assume air is the shooting medium by default.
