Hello everyone, 

I'm Daria, currently based in Scotland. I'm quite new to the underwater photography. I have been binge watching wetpixel youtube videos for quite  some time.

I've joined the forums to get my head around in upgrading my current compact (canon G7MKII)  set up to the next logical level. I'm thinking about Olympus EM5 MkII.

 

Cheers,

Daria

What a dramatic upgrade! 

I'm looking to change my set up from compact camera to something more enabling for uderwater photography. Would be great to hear about your transition time!

Greetings from the chilly Northeast US! As an avowed nudi nerd I'm making the jump from a TG-5 setup to M43. Hoping to find some good deals in the classifieds while picking up tips and tricks from all of the brain trust here.

Stay wet--

Hello all

There are always questions to be asked in relation to underwater photography gear and even though I am part of a great local community of underwater photographers in Perth, Western Australia, we can all learn more from the wider community.  Hence why I have signed up.  

I have been diving for nearly 20 years, and more serious on the photography side of things for 8 years now.  I currently have the full frame Sony A7Riii system.

Hi 

My name is Albert Kok. I'm a a senior diver from Asterdam. Holland,  and  have been  posting  quite some stuff  on  the Wetpixel site in the past. That was since Eric Cheng was still 'in command''.  But since I changed my E-mail adres some years ago , It seems that I need a new Introduction to post something  in the Classified section. Thats is what Adam just told me.  So here I am! Cheers, Albert

I can't still enter the classified section, despite  your assurance that it would be possible after my (re) introduction after password change. What wrong?

Your profile is working fine for me now, including posting in the classifieds?

Hi guys, UK diver based on Dorset's Jurassic Coast. I've started an UW photography themed blog: https://www.jonunderwater.co.uk/ - mostly to escape from my other responsibilities- and I'm currently diving a Sony a6000 in a Seafrogs/Meikon housing with an s-2000 strobe. I tend to focus on shooting shallow reef and seagrass life around Dorset and Cornwall.

Hi - I'm Lori Ann, and I live in Northport, NY (USA). 

I started doing underwater photography with a GoPro in 2013. I upgraded to an LX10 in 2017, and I'm now ready to upgrade again to mirrorless. I've started poking through Wetpixel forums and am eager to get advice.

I'm also happy to answer questions about the LX10 and it's Nauticam housing. I've done macro using the CMC1 and CMC2, so I can also answer questions about that.

Hello all!!

My name is Felipe.

After long time diving, last summer I started with my underwater photography journey.

Learning and more learning, and thanks to wetpixel many doubts solved.

I hope I can post some pics very soon.

Hi guys, 

My name is Pachara.

I'm from Bangkok, Thailand but currently live in Washington DC for work and will be here for 4 years.

With this work opportunity, I will try to dive around here. 

If there is any suggestion on where to dive, please feel free to share the advice.

For the gear, i'm using the Nikon Z7ii which recently upgraded from Nikon Z6, in Isotta housing.

I hope to learn from all of you and wish I would have enough time to explore numbers of wonderful dive sites around the states.

Best regards,

Pachara
