Most photographers are diving solo, even if part of a buddy team.
That is not criticism, it is merely a reflection of reality.
Not necessarily, although the first thing I noticed when I started carrying a camera is that my buddy skills were not adequate to both photography and buddy diving ... and I had to put some effort into developing a whole different set of techniques for keeping track of my dive buddy. The dive buddy also needs to adopt additional techniques for maintaining the integrity of the team. It works well for teams that are used to diving with each other ... and not at all with pickup buddies.
I wrote an article about it some years back ... The Photographer's Dive Buddy
