Member Introductions

Hi, new member.

I'm Jake, and a freediver from Palm Beach, Florida.

I shoot with a Sony a6000 with the kit lens (for now) and an 8 inch dome.

Hi all,

I have been diving since 2007, and have been seriously interested in underwater photography since about 2011. You can check out my work at http://kylelucy.com.

Hi All,

I'm Ellen from bay area California and am looking to sell my Nauticam housing for Nikon D810, including dome ports, viewfinder, vacuum pump, strobes...

Rig was purchased october 2014 and has been on only two dive trips. Its in like-new condition and worked great, beautiful and best shots to date, just getting tired of large rig and want to dive camera free after 20 years of underwater photographing or at least switch to a compact rig for a while. I usually dive one or two trips per year with the last ones being Raja Ampat Indo and Coron Philippines

Hello,

New member who can't sleep well. Have been shooting with a TG-3 for a couple years, looking to upgrade soon!

New member from Orlando, Florida. I frequently drift dive off southeast Florida and am increasingly interested in underwater videography. Currently using two GoPro 4 Black cameras on a rack with 2x Sola 2500 Video lights, I'm looking to build a proper video rig based on a Panasonic GH4 (currently own body with 12-35mm/2.8 and Olympus 8mm/1.8).

Hi there!

I just joined the wetpixel-community and I'm looking forward to learn some tricks about underwater photography.

Cheers

I have a bunch of camera gear and I'm probably buying more soon. I also have a pile of stuff in the basement that I don't use any more, maybe I'll get ambitious and try to sell some of it.

Hi, my name is Matias Alexandro.

Underwater photographery it's been my hobbie for a long time, and now I think it's a good time to start it as my business.

I shoot with nikon D800, and mostly with natural light.

Hello!!

My name is Helene, I am French and I have been living in Hong Kong for the past 2.5 years. I spend all my holidays diving around Asia in amazing dive sites.

I recently started to take underwater photography more seriously following an amazing diving holidays in Sulawesi (Indonesia) which was fantastic for macro photography. I am still a beginner but I truly enjoy it and I hope I can learn lots of tricks from experienced photographers in this community.

I have a Canon G16, a Nauticam housing and I recently acquired a Nauticam CMC-1 and a single Inon Z240 strobe.

I posted a few of my pictures on a blog I recently created: http://heleneuw.blogspot.com

Feel free to check them out and share your opinion!

Many thanks!

Helene

HI I am Debra, been diving 30 years, use to do video with my Light & Motion housing but now just GoPro. would like to sell my Light & Motion housing.

Hi Folks,

I live in NY and I have been diving for a few months (~ 50 dives) and photographing on the land for a long while; I am think I am finally at the stage where I'd like to investigate pictures underwater!

Hi, I'm Charlie Coulter living in western Virginia. I've been diving on and off since 1973 but have been getting back into it much more in the last 5 years. Used a Nikonos a couple of times back in the 80's but never really mastered it. Recently decided to try and get serious about U/W photography as a hobby. Just returned from Bonaire but was there for som speciality classes so I was only able to make one photo dive. Still trying to get familiar with operating camera via housing controls. Anyway, I came across Wetpixel and thought it would be a great source of info. I look forward to participating soon.

Thanks, Charlie
