Hi all,

Having browsed this website for a wile now, I thought it was about time I signed up. I'm a marine biologist and when not observing the underwater world I spend a fair part of my time taking pictures of it. I'm currently based out of Australia but spending a reasonable part of my time in Palau.

Cheers,

Sparky

Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie to underwater photography, having been diving for 8 years. Have just sold my gopro with the intention to move to a better system, however at the age of 21 my budget is limited - any help welcome.

Cheers,

Chris

Good afternoon from the sunny UK!

I have been diving for over 20 years and have been fortunate enough to have dived in some amazing places around the work. Unfortunately it might be time to hang up those fins and I may be selling all my underwater video equipment

Hi All! I'm Sing Kwan from Malaysia (now living in Thailand). Interested in learning more about underwater photography here and maybe to buy some second hand gear in the classified sections.

Hello,

My name is Andrey. I love to dive and take underwater pictures. Going to the Bahamas next month and really excited about this trip!

Hi, Greetings from Stuart Florida! My name is John and I just became aware of WetPixel. I am a marine cinematographer with 44 years underwater. My primary interests are conservation in marine and terrestrial areas that I frequent and filming unique animals and behavior underwater and topside. I look forward to connecting with some of you.

Cheers!

Hi, I'm Nareg and I currently live and work in Hong Kong and enjoy diving all over Southeast Asia and underwater photography.

Hi,

I have been practicing photography and videography professionally for the last 7 years. I recently tried diving and one of the instructors had a camera with him. This opened my eyes to the possibilities of underwater videography and photography. One look at that footage and I was hooked. I look forward to learning more about underwater shooting and interacting with the community

Hello!

I'm Rick from Minneapolis, MN. I'm an avid diver, but also a bit of a baby, so I only really like to dive in warm water. This keeps me dry unless I'm traveling, because Minnesota is about as far from an ocean as you can get in the US. I've been diving for over 30 years, and have been to Cozumel, Roatan, Belize, Raja Ampat, Lembeh, Hawaii, the Florida Keys, Playa Del Carmen, Fiji, Thailand, and Sri Lanka on wonderful dive trips. My wife and I are heading to Bonaire next week and I'm excited to try my new 5d MkIII in its Nauticam housing with Inon Z-240s. Glad to be here!

Thanks

I dive in the UK and want to message a now fellow member about an item for sale,to up grade my setup.

Hi from New Zealand. I have a few questions to put to the members here, and I'll be keeping an eye on the Classifieds section for any bargain buys. :-)

Aloha! Just joined & am hoping to see if anyone has any particular recommendations for any different settings for an OMD-EM5 in a Nauticam housing when using a Magic filter instead of strobes (have been using the settings recommended by Coroander and Dr Alex Mustard but they don't address whether any changes should be made if using a Magic Filter & ambient light). Many mahalos!

Aloha everyone! I'm a landscape photographer based in Maui and just getting into some underwater photography now.
