XZ-1 pics from Thailand

[MadBeaverDK]

Hi there

Here's some pics taken at Similan Islands (Island no. 9) and Koh Phi Phi (divesites around Maya beach).

Equipment used:
Olympus XZ-1 in PT-050 housing.
Inon UWL-H100 28m67 Wet lens
One Sea & Sea ys-110a strobe.

C&C very welcome.

I'm thinking on upgrading to an E-pl5 in a PT-EP10 housing and the 8 mm fish eye or 9-18 mm WA. I love WA, but I've never been truly happy with the Inon UWL-H100 on the XZ-1. It's just not sharp enough and there's some weird shifts going on with the color.

dont be so hard on yourself, these are great pictures. thailand is hard to shoot, IMO. these photo's came out great.

what settings did you use? any post processing?

Thank you

I shot in full manual as the ys-110a doesn't do TTL with the XZ-1. I shot in RAW and the files were processed in Lightroom.
I was diving around Phi Phi a few years ago, where I saw reef and zebra sharks. Unfortunately there was no sharks this time.

usually you see lots of turtles there too...and yes we have a problem with some fishers looking for sharks.
best place to see zebra sharks (leopard sharks) is bida nok and bida nai.......for next time
