Setup Questions

2 posts
  1. Hi guys, Im new here to these forums and to underwater photography. My name is Michael and me and my wife are getting ready to go on our honeymoon to Tahiti, So before we go on the trip i would love to get my self a setup to take some pics and video. Right now any information you guys can give me would be a massive help i have not had to much time to look into this hobby yet due to work but i do plan on starting to read up on stuff.

     

    As of right now i have a Canon T2i with stock lens but i will be getting Tokina 10-17mm f3.5/4.5 DX Canon Fisheye Zoom Lens, as for housing i am looking at the Aquatica, Now i plan on doing video and taking stills, so my other question is what type of lights should i get, i was told i will need 2 1 for video and 1 for film what do you guys recommend? If you guys could give any input on anything that comes to you guys it is most appreciated.

  2. You want to have 2 good strobes like a Sea & Sea YS-110a for still photography, and a small video light like the Sola 1200 light for faster focusing and video. You can buy all 3 now, or buy them in pieces :) Have fun! - Scott
