Hello all,
I am not an underwater photographer - I am a diver that dives with a camera. I use a camera to document what I see and to show my kids to interest them in scuba. I chose my camera based upon reviews at backscatter.com - I think that it is a Canon Powershot 1100 SD or some such. At any rate I don't use an external strobe.
In a few recent posts I have read of people bashing Canon for its small sensors in P&S cameras. I find this difficult to rationalize with Canon's consistently good performance on backscatter.com. Why the apparent contradiction? FWIW I may be looking for a new camera. I may add a strobe. I am still interested in keeping the camera and strobe compact and cheap.
Thanks for any illuminating comments.
Cheers,
Crush
