A complete review of the new Olympus XZ-1 compact camera, and its potential for underwater photography

The Olympus XZ-1 is clearly a winner in the class of high-end compact cameras, with very few negative aspects. It's excellent F1.8-2.5 lens makes it stand out about the small crowd of competitors. I've been using this camera for several days, and wanted to share my personal thoughts. Here's the Olympus XZ-1 review.

 

Olympus XZ-1 quick specs:

  • Sensor size: 1/1.63 CCD, 10 megapixels, 3648x2739 (4:3). Same equivalent sensor size as Canon S95/G12

How to photograph mouthbrooding behavior



Underwater photography of mouthbrooding Cardinalfish can be challenging and rewarding. On a recent visit to the Sabang Wrecks in Puerto Galera, Philippines, we found that a little patience can reward you with some interesting images of this unique marine life behavior.

Tips on using a diopter, for compact and dSLR underwater shooters

Supermacro with the New SubSee Diopter

Supermacro with the New SubSee Wet Diopter
Scott Gietler
Tips on using a diopter, for compact and dSLR underwater shooters

A couple of weeks ago, just before the birth of my first baby, I got in 3 local dives using the new Subsee diopters and dual-flip adapter. In this article I want to share some underwater photos, tips, and thoughts on this setup. Although I was using a Nikon D300, Nikon 105mm VR lens, and the Subsee setup, this article can apply to compact camera setups using other wet diopters as well, such as the excellent Dyron macro lenses or Inon macro lenses.
