Underwater photography opens up a world of possibilities, from the coral reefs off the coast of Bali to the manta rays and mola mola of Nusa Penida. However, underwater photography requires a cautious and safe approach.
Here are some tips for beginners in underwater photography:
Essential equipment:
Digital camera: Choose a camera suitable for scuba diving.
Waterproof housing: Protect your camera from the elements.
Flash or underwater light mounted on an articulated arm: Enhance lighting to capture wildlife and vivid colors.
Plate for mounting the housing in the center: Facilitates camera handling.
Wet lens: Expand the capabilities of your camera.
Safety first:
Be aware of your abilities when swimming or diving.
Learn about the animals you are photographing and recognize signs of fear or stress.

Preserve the beauty of fish and reefs.
If you sense that the animal has been stressed

Hi, I have been using a Sony A6000 in a Meike/Seafrogs case. I have had it for maybe 7-8 years. Its OK but bulky for travel. I use with one Inon fash . Should I upgrade to one of these? I shoot manual but two of my friends use the Olympus TG-5 and get netter macro results. SKILL MATTERS. 😅 I am planning on a trip to the Philippines in April 2024, and looking at changing to a gopros just because of the size for flights and packing, and they are point and shoot really. I am not a great photographer underwater and would have to say my dives have become completely focused on trying to get a nice photo rather than ENJOYING the dive. 😭😭😭😭😭😭 Very sad about this. My dive is in Malapascua so its all bout shooting the amazing thresher sharks there AND having FUN. BTW LOVE YOUR CHANNEL.
