What settings for Sony DSC W 90 ?

[Red Sea Diver 0]

Hi all.

 

I´m new to the forum and relatively inexperienced in underwater photography.

 

I´m about to buy a Sony DSC W 90 with the MPK WB housing. Can anybody supply me with any info on the camera, especially the correct settings for underwater?

 

Thanks

Sorry for the delay but I was hoping someone with a W90 would reply first. I have a N2 which I am hoping is similar enough that the settings I have found to be successful will work with your camera as well.

 

For Macro photos:

Manual Mode

- F4.0

-Shutter @ 1000

 

Focus: Spot AF

Flash: Forced Flash

Macro: On

Color Mode: Vivid

Metering Mode: Spot

White Balance: Daylight

ISO: 100

P.Quality: Fine

Contrast: Normal

Sharpness: Normal

Digital Zoom: Off

Red Eye Reduction: Off

AF Illuminator: Off

Housing: On

 

For general photos I tend to use the Program Mode with most of the same settings. The video mode on my camera doesnt allow any setup/change so I cant make adjustments to that portion.

Thanks a million, I guess the settings on both cameras are more or less the same. Now to go and try it out.

I know this is a old thread but was hoping to get some help with settings for my Sony dsc-n2 on non macro shots
