In Topic: Which camera to 'encase': E-M5 or RX100?

16 April 2013 - 03:44 AM

Hi Mattia,

 

If what you do is mostly snorkeling, I recommend you the RX100. But if you are more interested in macro photography, the OLY em5 in a Nauticam Housing with the dedicated 12-50 port is the best option-value for your money. Semi w/a and very good macro quality, everything in a single port.

It all depends on what are really your preferences, because if you travel without Strobes, the difference in size is not that big.

Hi Berkeleyan,
Does the Airlock system from backscatter work with OM-D in Nauticam housing ?
A couple a days ago, I made the same question to the people of Backscatter and here is the answer:
“The Nauticam housing does have an accessory bulkhead spot, so Yes.  The AirLock will work on the NA-EM5 housing.”

Thank you,
Sean Boone



In Topic: Best BCD for New Underwater Photographers

A lot of people are talking about all the benefits of the sidemount BC and Buoyancy in recreatinal diving. Does anybody has experience taking pictures with a sidemount ?  Is it true that sidemount gives you more stability?

Thanks

In Topic: Time to Upgrade: Oly OM-D EM-5 vs. Nikon D7000

I am a long time nikon fan and really Like the D 7000. Great camera with great picture quality BUT…
Travel size does matter!
And that is why I decided to buy the OM D
I can pack everything in a small Backpack ( om-d + nauticam housing + Oly 12-50 zoom  and macro port,  Sea & Sea YS-D1 dual strobes with arms + Sola 800 focus light and 13” Laptop and I think that I still have more room for the pany 8mm and 4”domeport.( My next purchase )
I use the Temba shootout rolling backpack medium size.
Any decision you make will be the right one, the two cameras are very good
