Aloha and welcome! Your stuff is great!

You'll find one strobe will make a big difference in your photos. The TG system hasn't changed much from the TG-4 to the 7. I wish OM System would come up with a real new and improved version, with a bigger sensor and better manual control. It's an excellent system as is, but we can always wish for more. The Sony A6000 is older but still usable. I have one and use it but it doesn't compare to the focusing capability of newer Sonys. I also have a Sony A7c. If I had to choose between the TG system, the Sony A6000 and the Olympus E-M1 or newer - and could only use one - I would go back to the Olympus mirrorless. They're small, light, great ergonomics, wonderful lenses, and cheaper to put in a housing. Good luck!

Aloha and welcome Jin!

Aloha and welcome to any and all humble guys!

Aloha and welcome Tim!

When I look at camera specs, most cameras use more battery power when viewing through the viewfinder. Know why this is so? Some of the newer cameras are using bigger batteries, and that makes this observation meaningless, but I found it curious, especially with the chintzy little batteries in compacts ten years ago.

@thejaguar Hi. I have a couple of spares. PM me and we can arrange to get them to you. Cheers, Craig

Aloha and welcome!

Diving conditions may be terrifying to bring this theory to practical use.

Assuming all variables being the same - strobe angle, conditions, distance to subject, adjusted exposure - how can that be?

Aloha and welcome!

Aloha and welcome!

Hi Roman, That looks pretty good! Did you take off the WWL-1 at 0:38 the tighter shot of the hawkfish? Best, Craig

One of our moderators, @Davide DB asked about this. But we only heard the sound of crickets. Maybe we can fold this question in his:

Nice work! That is very unfortunate that your film was disqualified.

Aloha and welcome Nicholas!

Super stuff Christian! That Trioplan is manual focus? Also, did that fit easily into your existing ports?

The step up from the TG models is a cliff. Bring a parachute. I've heard that the R50 is quite good - its size and focusing ability, plus with Canon's renown color science. But when you add strobes, everything gets bigger and bulkier, including the TG series (which I quite like). You might consider strobes such as the Inon S-220 and Backscatter MF-2 (TTL exposure with Olympus) both of which have smaller footprints. One strobe for a smaller footprint, and two if you want to be like everybody else. One flash can make some nice photos, however.

Aloha and welcome! We can certainly help you spend your money here.

Aloha and welcome!

Aloha from Oahu!

Good stuff!

That's sad news. I liked their Sola lights.

Well done!

Aloha and welcome @Johan
