Canon's newest top camera
A year after the Canon EOS R5 was debuted as Canon's best camera ever created, the Canon EOS R3 was announced in September of 2021. As a direct response to the groundbreaking Sony A1, the Canon EOS R3 was designed for insanely fast burst shooting speeds of 30 frames per second with a 24.1 MP BSI stacked sensor.

These are the best underwater settings for shooting your Nikon Z camera underwater
The Nikon Z7, Z6, Z7II, and Z6II are all excellent options for underwater photography. I should know - after every camera that I have had the pleasure of reviewing, my very own personal camera is still the Nikon Z6. So rest assured, these underwater settings are from personal experience. If you are a Nikon Z camera owner, no matter what camera you have, this underwater settings guide will be useful.

Lumens, Lux, Beam Angle, CRI - What does it all mean?
It seems like there are more kinds of underwater video lights than there are cameras for underwater video. But if you're planning on getting nice color in your underwater video, it can be a very tough decision to know which video light is right for you and why. And even then, there are some video shooters that won't need a light for their video.

A Review of DivePro Underwater Snoot Video Lights
If you want a black background in your underwater video, striking colors, and sharp contrast, then you need a snoot. Underwater snoot video lights isolate subjects from their backgrounds by overwhelming the subject with a narrow light beam - creating contrast with the ambient-lit background behind it.
