Canon eos SL1.

[Isurus oxyrinchus]

I'm wondering if anyone here uses the Canon eos SL1 for underwater pictures and video. All the reviews and examples I can find of it are for land use. If you have a photo album or a video that was filmed with the SL1 and it's posted here on Scubaboard that would be great too!

Just bought 2 last summer for my wife and myself. They replaced a pair of G10s.
It is a great camera system and is compact enough to be able to carry on airplanes as cabin baggage while staying below 7kg weight.
Ikelites web site has some very good pictures shot with the SL1

I shoot with the Canon T3i. Same MP and CMOS sensor, but the SL1 has the DIGIC 5 Image Processor vs. the 4 on the T3i. Shoots some pretty good photos! Let me know if you wanted to see more.

Sure, more pictures would be nice. How does it work in low light? What sort of lights do you use with it?

I have one Ikelite DS125 strobe, Ikelite housing, and occasionally use an Archon D11v as a focus light. Works pretty well in low light.

Heres some photos of a recent trip I did:

Still much practice needed though
