I am new to UW photography but inherited a family member's subal + nikon d7200 with a ton of ports, strobes etc. We talked photography endlessly, and she was a birder and nature photographer topside (has a nice 400mm zoom for the nikon above water).
I always pledged to get certified and try diving but I don't think I can swing the commitment this setup brings to the table, esp with new kids and whatnot- while I'd like to keep it as a memory of her I may flip it and just replace with a camera I can then hand down generationally. IDK anything about UW gear though, so I'm reading up on the subal housing and all the crazy ports etc it comes with.
