Newbie to WaterPixels from Sonoma County, CA, USA

Posted 7 hours ago7 hr

HI, all.

Experienced diver and somewhat experienced UW photographer, here. From Sonoma County, California.

Just upgraded from my old Oly EPM-! in an Oly housing, to an OM-D EM10, Mark IV in a Backscatter Octo housing. Still using my trusty S&S YS-D! strobes.

Looking forward to learning from everyone else's experience and knowledge.

Weefine WF101 Ring Light 3000 Version 2

Maria Munn · March 29Mar 29

Weefine have just released a new ring light, the WF101 Ringlight 3000 Version 2 to compliment their existing WF105 Ring Light 3000 CCW but what are the differences between the two and why would you prefer to use one over an external strobe?
