We will be heading down to Key Largo this weekend to complete OWC. Ran across what I think is a great deal on a Reefmaster Kit (DC310). Camera, strobe and a few other little goodies. I know I probably need to get more accustomed to diving before I tackle much picture taking but we are just getting exicited about the whole thing. We will do 2 dives Monday(checkout) and 2 more of the same Tuesday. Then some fun dives Wednesday and Thursday. I have been getting familar with the camera and hope to try a few shots on the second dive of the first day and proceed from there.
I have seen the basic rules (I think). Shoot close and level, not downward. I have some knowledge about photography is general. Not a bunch but some. Just brand new to the wet stuff. I have printed the instruction manual for both the strobe and camera and will read up on them both. We are headed to the pool tonight for some more pratice and swimming around and bouancy control, breathing etc... and a few shots with the camera.
Will I need any weight on the camera? Think I remember seeing something about a weight that can go in the strobe.
Any other suggestions for the newbie?
Thanks
