4. Shoot many pictures of the same subject - If you don’t like it, delete it -
later.
One of the great advantages of digital cameras is that you can review and delete
pictures later, so shoot several pictures of the same subject. One of the best ways
to learn underwater photography is from your good pictures and bad pictures.
5. Evaluate picture for proper exposure and adjust exposure compensation as
needed.
Refer to section in this manual titled “Exposure Compensation” for more details.
If using the Ext. Flash mode and optional flash accessory, select Macro Flash
[ ] to darken picture. Select for Far Flash [ ] to brighten picture. You can also
reduce the flash intensity (with the optional SL960D SeaLife Digital accessory) to
brighten or darken the picture.
6. Use Mini Wide Angle Lens for dramatic pictures.
The Wide Angle lens (item # SL973) allow you to get close to your subject for
images full of colors and razor-sharp details.
7. Use the SeaLife Flash Accessories to enhance color and brightness.
Water filters out light and red/yellow colors resulting in darker, bluer images. The
only way to prevent this from occurring is by taking pictures at shallow depths
(within 10-15’ depth on a sunny day) or by using artificial light, like the SeaLife
External (SL960) or Digital (SL960D) Flash. The Flash easily mounts to the bottom
of the camera. The flexible arm allows you to direct the flash at the subject. Even
two flashes can be mounted onto the camera for an evenly illuminated and shadow-
free image. This system blocks the built-in flash and prevents backscatter. The
flexible flash arms allow quick adjustments of the flash. An optional Flash Diffuser
can be snapped onto the flash head and is highly recommended for closeup shots
of bright, reflective subjects.
