mhdiver 0 Posted August 3, 2006 Hi, I'm new here and new to the world of underwater photography. However I am a professional photographer and instructor above water. I am just starting my scuba training and want to get a UW camera setup. I'm looking to do my UW photography as hobby and not to make money as I do above water. I am very interested in the Sealife DC500 elite. Could anyone please give me their opinions about the camera and set up! Thanks, I hope to have some of my first UW images soon Mike B) You can see my AW images @ www.mhaganphoto.com dive safe, dive often Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeanB 19 Posted August 3, 2006 Hi Mike, Welcome to Wetpixel.. There are plenty of highly (if not) over qualified stills people on this sight..So as soon as they wake up or 'surface' You will be answered.. I myself am a video person so sorry cannot help. Still welcome again and I hope you gain some valuable knowledge from this forum of friends. Dive safe DeanB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmoss 0 Posted August 3, 2006 Hello Mike and welcome... James Wiseman did a review of this setup a while back. May be helpful. DC500 review Shutter lag may prove to be very frustrating for you with this camera. One of the comments indicates significant lag time. I have not used this camera so am not really qualified to give 'expert' advice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
