If you think the digital era has revolutionized photography out of the water, wait until you discover what it has done for underwater imaging.
- No longer do you need costly underwater cameras, expensive strobes or pricey lenses to capture breathtaking underwater images.
- There is no more buying film, paying for processing — or having to wait until you get home from vacation to discover how your pictures came out.
- You don’t need to master complicated concepts such as f-stops, shutter speed, aperture and guide numbers.
All you need is an inexpensive, point-and-shoot digital camera and housing (which we provide for class) — and our Digital Underwater Photography course.
