      Thanks so much Pec! I don't script the videos, so hopefully my explanations feel very conversational. Glad you're enjoying the them 😎👌

    Intro was funny.
    I have a question: i have a ikelite housing (4 lock, older version) for my canon 7D. I want to know if i can use it with a canon 7D mk ii? I can t find any information about it...
    Thanks for your videos 👌

      Agreed, or your local underwater camera retailer

      Hi Nuno - I used to know this but am not certain right now. Call the local underwater camera retailer where you purchased the housing, or contact Ikelite directly like th4n mentioned. Good luck

    So?.... How was that intro? Cheesy enough to be entertaining? 🤣

      Yes! Thanks - very much appreciated. I do these in spare time (instead of going diving or editing a u.w video or something), so the feedback really helps!

      Brent Durand we are diving in Jupiter, FL today and tomorrow. Taking the GoPro. Conditions look great.

      Brent Durand I really tried to do the same with all of mine, looking at the analytics it seemed to make a big difference as well as cutting it from a 10 minute film to a 5 minute increased retention. Really like your info just wish we could get in the water now and practice some of these skills.

    I didn't think that the intro was cheesy at all, I liked the intro. I'm still wondering about the issue of having light areas versus dark areas in the composition. It certainly works in landscape photography. I can see how in underwater photography, ambient versus artificial light differences would be a negative in so far as color temperature of the subject matter is concerned, but otherwise, I think that it's an affective juxtaposing tool to create figure versus ground relations and visually weighted areas relative to negative space areas as it does for landscape nature photography. Any more insights on this would be great as I'm hoping to begin underwater photography some day. I've never shot underwater yet, only landscapes and wildlife nature photography. Check out my website and see what I mean: AngeloRolandoNaturePhotography.com

      Hi Angelo, thanks for watching and for your feedback. I think you're completely right. The strobes (or constant light) are a tool for creating 'visual weight' in a wide-angle scene. In this tip I'm referencing reefscapes, which can be considered underwater landscapes. Shooting these scenes is just like shooting a wide-angle landscape once the sun has gone down and you're shooting the afterglow / alpineglow - you'll often get amazing colors in the mid-ground and background, however the foreground subject (rock, plant, etc.) will be virtually black. Underwater we use the strobes to really make that POP. The lighting is (*or should be for pro level results) set up like studio lighting, often with a key light and fill light. Cheers!

    I'm kind of tired of these 3 best... 3 tips... 3 tricks... 3 secrets... top 3 as everything is always subjective specially in realm of arts. Begingers try to remember those as rules and will confuse them just more and those who are more experienced will just unsubscribe but all good otherwise.

      Thanks for the feedback Juhani. Three takeaways is a widely practiced method for teaching, corporate presentations, etc. - it's more exciting than 2 takeaways, but not hard to remember like 5. These 'Unusual Tips' videos are conversational and meant to inspire thought, and not meant to be a standard step-by-step beginner article. To use Composition as an example of a standard beginner article, you would list rules like get close, shoot at at upward angle, use these settings, etc. Hence the 'Unusual' in the name of this video! I'm always open to suggestions for formatting short, simple, beginner-friendly videos though.
