Hi, My name is Tom, I started diving in the early 90’s and have achieved MSD level. My main hobby is photography and have taken cameras underwater for a number of years, in a number of places. I love to spend time photographing anything from fish,  wrecks, coral etc etc. Long may it continue :)

Hi There, 

 

I'm Matt based in Cambodia working for conservation NGO. Mostly using my camera for side hobby and communications for the organization.

Currently using a Lumix Lx 10, wide & macro wet lenses and Inon Z-330s. However, looking to move into videography now as it seems to receive a wider reach over here in Asia.

여러분, 안녕하세요,

 

저는  한국 잠수부입니다. 나는 약 9년 동안 다이빙을 해왔습니다.

 다이빙을 하면서 컴팩트 카메라를 사용했습니다. 그 후 소니 모델의 카메라로 사용하다가 지금은 소니 a7c와 노티캠 하우징을 사용하고 있습니다.

나는 모든 수중 사진을 좋아하지만 수중 모델을 찍는 것을 좋아합니다.

Hello everyone,
 I am a Korean diver. I have been diving for about 9 years.
 I used a compact camera while diving. After that, it was used as a camera for Sony models, and now I am using a Sony a7c and a nauticam housing.
I love all underwater photography, but I love taking underwater models.

Hi all,

My name is Shah and I am a science photographer based in Los Angeles. I've only done underwater photography a few times, but it is certainly something I have a lot of interest and TON of respect for. I typically shoot with Nikon full frame and Fujifilm medium format.
