Really great Simon! Just bought the Backscatter Mini Flash 2 and snoot and bringing them down to Raja Ampat for the next couple of weeks. I am so glad I found this presentation! I feel much more equipped to succeed! Thank you!

Thank you so much it's really helpful!

One day I'm going to do this. At this moment it doesn't fit Inn my series about starting macro photography on a budget. But under water photography is real nice. So thank you for sharing this.

[@peterheitmann2844]

Wow, thanks for sharing your great images and your uw photograph knowledge!

[@AquaticRod]

This is a fantastic lecture on underwater photography. I think you should actually convert this zoom recording into a properly produced underwater photography instructional video (backscatter style). Also, I see below that somebody said that it would be good to be able to add to the photos the parameters that were used in them, I very much agree with that comment.

[@InsiderDivers]

Hi Rodrigo, in later episode I did do that. but yes I also agree with the comment.

Si tienes razon, en otras video ya les ha accompado :-)

[@khamai5353]

Hi, i also use the snoot like you but, when i focusing the focus light straight to the animal but when camera trigger the light go beside animal . Do you have any recommend ? Please advise.

[@InsiderDivers]

Hi there. it depends on the model of snoot, some you need to plan for the light to come out slightly to one side. It is a bit annoying

[@ginganinga112]

Thanks this was great! I’ve just seen that part 2 is broken. Is this fixable or do you plan to re-record at all?

[@InsiderDivers]

Hi there, it should work. Sorry I missed this message

[@johnddwyer]

Question: how do I get black backgrounds when the sync speed of my shutter is fixed at 1/160 with the flash?

[@InsiderDivers]

Reduce your aperture and ISO so that the image is dark unless you use your strobe. Then add strobe
