Hi, my name is Steve. I am an amateur photographer/videographer. Better now than when I started, but still learning as I go mostly through experimenting. Joined here to see if I can get some pointers. I shoot mainly with Canon products. Preferred subject is bigger animals such as sharks, turtles, rays, etc... Happy diving!

Hi, I'm Franco from Italy, I'm quite new as diver, but I'm keen in photography since a long time. Underwater photography is really difficult, but I'm sure that this forum can help me a lot. I currently use a Olympus tg-5 with housing and strobe. When I get better I'd like to move in a mirrorless system.

Ciao/cheers

Hi, I'm Deanne. Underwater photography has been a passion of mine and I have several camera systems. I'd like to get in to underwater video, so I'm looking for ideas on technique and subject matter.

Hi, my name is Romain, I'm from France.

I do underwater photo & video.

 

For 3 years, I had a Sony RX100III in nauticam housing. The camera is now broken (not flooded) so I've just bought a GH5 with Nauticam housing.

 

I live in Marseille and I dive every week-ends in the Mediterranean Sea.

Greetings,

 

My name is Jonathan Crifasi, I am from Baton Rouge, LA and have recently moved to South Florida. I have been here over two years now and one of the first things I did was get my OW certification along with a few advanced courses. Then I put a camera in my hand... just a GoPro 5 at first but I mastered that quickly and am now beginning my ventures with a more professional rig. I just got an Olympus E-M5 Mark II and some strobes and have some great plans once I master this camera in the underwater world. I love the website and look forward to learning from the experienced divers here!

I'm a Canadian Diver, mostly diving the Caribbean / Bahamas these days. I'm thinking about finally acquiring some underwater gear; I've been taking photos on land for a long time.

Hi everybody - currently new to diving and want to take some snapshots of my diving. Advance land photographer - but getting into underwater. (surprised the housing cost more than the camera!!) Seems to be a very expensive hobby - especially if they change the camera design. At least with my DSLR; the lenses are good forever only the camera changes. With underwater you have a very 'married system' if one changes all has to change. Now in the Red Sea (Saudi) and live in Thailand.
