  1. That looks great! That was the original A7? I’m impressed.
  2. Hii

    Aloha and welcome @Caszieme
  3. Housings are pretty crazy, but it’s likely good to remind ourselves that underwater imaging is a small segment of the larger imaging tech world.
  4. That’s just for DSLRs eh? They are a shrinking part of the market.
  5. Very cool @Alex B thanks for posting.
  6. Aloha and welcome @rachid
  7. Aloha and welcome!
  8. Hi @EllenS In your first photo showing the port, the box in the background is blurred and I can’t make out the model number of the port. Could it be flat port 45 37165? Thanks. cc @scottmurillo
  9. Welcome aboard @DavidM Lotta knowledge hereabouts. I feel like a rookie here much of the time, like when I was a photography intern at The Denver Post.
  10. Aloha and welcome @Jero Prieto ! Thanks for the comparison piece you contributed on the R5 II, 1Dx II and Red Helium.
  11. That’s excellent. I’m glad to see my old AP colleagues covering an important story.
  12. I recall there was another Waterpixeler having issues with a trigger a couple of weeks ago and it appears it was a wire that had come loose. Aside from the main issue, were you able to shoot HSS with the UWT and the Backscatter HF-1?
  13. Aloha and welcome Ricardo!
  14. Aloha and welcome @hbax
  15. The Retra Maxi is due out this fall, and the 6000 lumen video light is an add-on. The Backscatter HF-1 seems like a good option, too, and I had one briefly, but decided to get dedicated video lights.
  16. I love compacts, and I might consider this one if it were half the price. Also, I’d prefer a 28mm fixed.
  17. I have UW Technics’ 11708 flash trigger for the Sony A7c, A7cII. I’m looking for strobes that enable high speed sync (HSS). On its website, UW Technic says this trigger supports the Retra Pro Max, and Marelux Apollo S. I’m curious what other strobes are supported by this particular trigger. Thanks, mahalo, arigato, gracias, grazie, merci, danke. Craig @Pavel Kolpakov
  18. @Pooley That first one is very nice! We rarely see these guys swimming.
  19. I am now old and weak, so APS-c and m4/3 sounds great to me!
  20. I used Olympus m4/3 for years then developed Sensor Envy (SE). I moved to Sony full frame with its amazing autofocus, but I have to say that I miss the form factor and great ergonomics of OMS/Olympus every time I shoot the Sony. I think for my needs, which is trying to capture marine life for prints, documentation and social media - that the 1/2 frame-sized OM sensor is quite good. I’ve had no issues making 11x14 prints but haven’t tried going larger, though I’m sure the m4/3 sensor certainly could. And you’ve already figured out everything about full frame is bigger and bulkier. I think m4/3 is great for travel and personal work. If you have a budget and assistants for paid work, then go big. Your clients expect it, though they may have no clue how you really make images.
  21. That IS terrible. Shame on Vimeo.
  22. I thought it was interesting, too, that he was using EF-s lenses in crop mode. Clearly, his images are great, so crop mode be damned. I’ve done that on occasion but I had a less dense full frame sensor (Sony A7c). Maybe the new MFO-2 will be of interest to him.
  23. Hi Kristin. Your clips look better than your buddy’s. My take is that you benefit from being closer to your subject and that one sequence of the two fish looks to have some artificial light, both of which are very helpful. Is most of the video straight out of camera without grading and processing? That could be part of it, with differences in what each camera puts out in terms of contrast and color balance. Fun stuff though! Craig
