Anggastya 0 Posted September 26, 2021 Hiii I live in Bali, Indonesia. Been diving for just 6 months, I'm a freelance photographer (land) and currently interested in underwater photography. Have a Nikon D750 and Sony A7 III but I still don't have the housing. Luckily my dive instructor has been very kind to lend me his TG6 with 2 Sea&sea YS-D3 strobes. Still have a problem with the backscatter, but I think it's getting better after I watched a lot of wet pixel videos on YouTube. Looking forward to being able to share underwater things in this forum. Thank you Anggastya Visit my Instagram @ib_anggastya Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pufferfish99 1 Posted September 27, 2021 Hello, I live on a sailboat and pretty much dive daily! We have been in Fiji the past year hanging out with like minded cruisers that love diving and photography. Lucky me. I am looking to upgrade my equipment for better photos. I have the olympus TG-6 which is a great camera for the cost and size, but it is time to upgrade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AntF 0 Posted October 9, 2021 Hi Wetpixelites, Firstly, thank you for providing this forum and for the value of its content. I’ve spent countless hours researching and learning from members who freely provide helpful advice. I've been diving since 1993 (gulp) and feel lucky to have experienced many amazing destinations around the world. The last 5 or so years with GoPro, then GoPro with tray, video lights and Macromates, now TG-6 added the tray (Backscatter settings). This year, I started using a strobe and Meikon wet dome– so a relative beginner. I'm ready to move to mirrorless and I'm here to learn. Thanks Ant Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RjbSA 2 Posted October 9, 2021 Greetings from Cape Town, South Africa, We have a spectacularly diverse and gorgeous coastline with a vibrant, temperate kelp forest ecosystem that consistently blows me away every time I dive. Needless to say I take my camera with me every time. I’m looking to gain any useful tips and tricks on underwater photography and possibly hunt down some new gear! all the best from the Cape, Ruben Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vincent Franqueville 0 Posted October 10, 2021 Hi all, I have been diving since I was little but I was kept out of water for some time and only got back into it a few years ago. I mostly dived in South-East Asia, especially in Indonesia. That's where I was able to try underwater photography for the first time. I bought myself a TG5 that I find very decent for a beginner such as myself. Unfortunately I was forced to go back to my hometown in France due to the Covid crisis and I haven't been able to get new shots since then. I really hope to be able to get back in the water asap so I can practice! I can't wait to share some of my shots as well as meet fellow underwater photographers!

OceansOfImages 0 Posted October 14, 2021 Hello- Rich and Laura Howard here. We are a husband and wife underwater photography/video team based in Tampa, FL. We absolutely love Wetpixel and have viewed some of the world’s best photos here. We are trying to become more social media savvy and want to tap in to the vast experience on all types of topics within this group. We started our underwater stock business, Oceans Of Images. Com in 1997 and have been going strong ever since. There have been tons of changes (yes we still have thousands of 35mm slides) and we are excited to be part of this community. We currently shoot with Nikon D810 in an Ikelight housing and just upgraded to a Panasonic GH5 with a Nauticam housing- along with our pack of GoPro’s. We now focus on leading Photography Dive Trips - Liveaboards mostly, based on “bucket list” locations (Red Sea, Guadalupe, Thailand) and working as volunteers with our local marine conservation organizations. Looking forward to learning and helping out in any way we can. - Rich/Laura Www.Oceansofimages.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
