Hi All -

I'm new to the wetpixel forums, but have been diving for about 20 years on and off - more seriously for the last 5. Started UW photography about 2 years ago, and I'm getting ready to upgrade my rig. I started on an Ikelite housing for my Canon S100 with 1 AF-35 strobe. Added the second strobe last year. This has been a great setup to learn on, and I've definitely found my groove as an UW photographer. Ready to move up, and starting to think about some things that I want to explore with my next setup, like constant light and more super macro. I'm a serious critter hunter!

Cheers,

Mike

Hi. I'm Chris Sharpe, living on the Isle of Man. New to Wetpixel, but previously many years experience diving in Manx waters.

 

Have a u/w housing for sale for a Sony EX3. Little used - purchased for a single project and no longer needed. Any interest out there?

Hello. I am Bruce Rasner and just never got around to joining until now. I have been quite the busy diver since early 80's and diving with obsession since '90. Fortunate to have been to most diving destinations I have wanted to visit at least once and graduated to digital in '05 after shooting a Canon F-1 until then.

 

Presently, I shoot with a Canon 5D Mk ii and Mark III in Aquaticas with as nice assortment of lenses. Now, I await the arrival of my new Canon 5Dsr. Based in S.California I have been fortunate to have been shooting professionally for a number of years and looking forward to finally avail myself of membership here after hearing nothing but great things about WP..

Hello, my name is Bjørn Haavard. I live i the middle of Norway right by the Norwegian sea. I`ve been diving regularly/active last 10years or so, and I have the last 5 years been more serious about UW photograpy. I dive all year around/seasons, mostly in the cold waters, but occationally all over the world when travelling. I have been reading UW photography sites for many years. Great info. Currently I am using a mirrorless system camera Sony nex 7, and finally this year I have got all the great glasses for this system when they finnally were realeased (macro etc)...

Thanks to you all for all the great info postet here on WetPixel

Hello,

 

This is my first post to introduce myself. I do most of my diving in Monterey/Carmel. Once in awhile I will go to tropical waters. I have been shooting macro and will be moving into wide angle soon. I'm relatively new to underwater photography and the use of Lightroom for editing. I would like to improve my skills.

Hi, I'm Patrick, I'm from NJ but currently live in Hawaii. I'm an avid rebreather diver and I've been diving and shooting with a Sony RX100M2 for the last couple years. I just put an order in on an Oly M4/3 set up and I'm looking to unload the RX100M2 - looking forward to improving my skills and seeing what I can do with the M4/3 system!

I'm Bill. I've been diving since 2009, taking photos for about 3 years. I finally am getting serious about taking photographs, not snapshots. Just did a serious equipment upgrade, and am looking forward to learning how to compose, take, and process photographs that will capture the beauty that I see when diving. I hope to learn from the extensive experience and expertise that seems to be the norm on this forum.
