What is the best way to take pictures underwater?
#1 - Get close to your subject - preferably within 12 inches. Water reduces color, contrast, and sharpness. #2 - Make sure your camera flash is turned on, preferable in "forced flash mode." #3 - For best composition - get low, shoot at an upwards angle, don't center the subject, try to fill your frame with the subject.
Which camera is used for underwater?
Our favorite underwater camera is the Sony Alpha 7R V used with Ikelite 200 DL Underwater Housing. However, if you're looking to purchase a different style of camera or something more budget-friendly, we've got options for that, too.
