    You're right some are not perfectly focused.. partially it was due to the usage of autofocus when shooting macro .. in my experience such details get slightly better when printing images than on the monitor. Anyway I don't consider pictures not perfectly on focus as great shots... I've to look...

    Using underwater lenses on land?

    Hi guys I'm using y Inon UWL 100 WideA lens with a Raynor tube and an adapter ring on land to achieve fisheye-like photography. It works fine but for distortion, of course, but I am satisfied

    Photo crevice/crack techniques?

    I would suggest you keep yourself a bit away aoutside the hole, than close up with the zoom and keeping the strobe in your hand you put it right outside the edge of the hole 45 degrees .. anyway it's a really hard conditions... never tried by myself

    Oly TTL Converter?

    Hi folks glad to see your adapter works! I've got one and it's working well with two YS90s By the way: a friend of mine has one (N type for nikonos TTL cable) but since he owns two strobes with "S" cables was forced to buy another one from Mike, and now he's trying to sell it. His price...

    did you edit shots in photoshop? level, colours..?

    Oly TTL Converter?

    I love the way you explained how to find the correct values for strobe and camera, even if it's pretty much different from my approach. I am printing your post to read it carefully during the weekend (it's raining here). I start from maximising DoF then taking care of other settings...

    Oly Evolt housing announcement...

    Fragile? it's not he camera...better the housing you've to worry about. That makes the difference in terms of reliability and cost... ALso DSR cameras that mount a sliding shutter (sorry don't know the english word for it) instead of central shutter (..) have limitations in terms of sync...

    to diffuse or not to diffuse ...that is the question!

    well those shots look fine to me, but personally speaking I don't like that those red filters act on all the colours .. I mean they seem unnatural to me and to my eyes if compared to what I see UW. It could easily be due to my monitor's calibration or whatever makes digital photography vs...

    to diffuse or not to diffuse ...that is the question!

    Well personally speaking I consider Red filters good for shooting videos. Not for photography, but it's just my thought as usual. In maldives, two weeks ago, I took some wide angle shots (look at the ship's ones) leaving my WB settings to "Sunlight" mode...and.. well, I like the blue that comes...

    Oly TTL Converter?

    Hi folks I've just bought it (more or less 200 €) and used for the first time in Maldives, connecting 2 YS90Auto strobes with a double TTL/Sync "N" Sea&Sea cable Guys it works I did'nt have time to test it a lot, since current was always strong, but you can find some shots I took while...

    to diffuse or not to diffuse ...that is the question!

    Luckily I no longer have to worry about WB. Thanks to the 2 strobes I mount I've manually selected "sunlight" and it works fine since my strobes' temp is 5500K as well. Scubabbbronh nice picts! I would really like to join you diving but from here ...well it takes a little time to get there ehehe

    Hi folks by clicking on the link below you'll see the new version of my website. Also I added a new gallery of the latest shots I took in Maldives a couple of weeks ago. It was my first time using 2 strobes and a 20mm lens, so please any feedback provided about wide angle photography and...

    to diffuse or not to diffuse ...that is the question!

    Oh I see... this is pretty far from the crystal clear water we've got here in italy... anyway I've got the message about backscattering and agree that's the only way to remove it. At the same time I would recommend a mixed use of incresed ISO sensitivity toghether with smaller aperture...

    to diffuse or not to diffuse ...that is the question!

    Hi personally I don't suggest such a setting. The reason is that while UW it's very hard to hold a camera... expecially when floating without touching anything, you risk to shoot 50% blurred picts. Another important reason is that such an aperture value (1.8) will reduce DoF consistently...

    Oly Evolt housing announcement...

    Folks dunno what kind of photographers you are (pros, beginners...) but IMHO D70 comes with a couple of huge disadvantages if compared to Hybrid cameras such as 8080 or even 5060 (I own): Lenses: you gotta choose what kind of pictures you'll take BEFORE you dive. Macro? Wide? tele? First you...

    Glad I could help you, too. Posting in this forum will help my English too to get more fluent. Any suggestion will be welcome, anyway.

    That's the same feeling of mine. If I plan to spend 1.3k € for a camera and easiliy the same for the housing including the lens enclosure, then I wonder weather it's better a prosumer housing such as Ike or an alu one.. but again I would underline the presence of that crappy TTL connector made...
