One of my favorite things about leading the Underwater Photography Guide's photoworkshops is bringing along new toys to try out and show our guests. During our July 2020 Sea of Cortez photoworkshop aboard the Rocio Del Mar, I had the pleasure of bringing a pair of new Sea & Sea YS-D3 Lightning strobes with me to use in my underwater photography.

One of the few advantages of lockdown is that underwater camera clubs are getting international speakers to support their virtual meetings. This is a massive benefit and we’ve been fortunate to listen to some very interesting speakers over the past six months. Back in July Peter de Maagt, an accomplished underwater photographer, and antenna specialist for the European Space Agency (ESA) joined the Bristol Underwater Photography Group’s monthly meeting.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Robert has worked professionally on commercial television sets doing production photography, shot modern dance for the art department at the University of Calgary, and has worked in a freelance capacity shooting a variety of subjects. Rob worked as a NAUI scuba instructor, and then instructor trainer for the University of Calgary from 1993-1999. He is still an avid diver, and never dives without a camera. 


He moved to Europe in the late 1990s and now resides in the UK. 

 

Robert has enjoyed success in both national and international underwater photography competitions over the years. As a result his images have been published in national magazines, books, scientific publications, and newspapers in the UK. He’s an active committee member for the British Society of Underwater Photographers (BSoUP), and the website administrator for the Bristol Underwater Photography Group (BUPG). He’s written several articles for national dive magazines, and often gives presentations on his own underwater photography and photographic technique for photographic clubs in the UK. 

 

Robert worked as a technical specialist, and then technical account manager in the IT industry for many years, and now works part time as a photographer, and full time as editor for the Underwater Photography Guide.

Ikelite Canon EOS R5 Housing Review

Nirupam Nigam

Ikelite was the first housing manufacturer to ship a housing for the Canon EOS R5, the most popular full-frame camera this year. Ikelite is a producer of light weight, polycarbonate housings made in the USA with a characteristic white finish and clear back. Their housings support a different niche than their aluminum counterparts as they are more budget friendly, light weight, corrosion resistant, and compatible with Ikelite's special TTL electronics.

The Canon EOS R5 is one of the most exciting cameras of 2020 for underwater photo and video featuring 8K video, a new 45 MP CMOS sensor, in-body image-stabilization, and 12 fps burst shooting!

The Canon EOS R5 is no doubt the most popular camera to hit the market in the last decade. It's also a testament to the amazing technological progress made in the mirrorless camera field in recent years. With the ability to shoot 8K RAW video, 4K video at 120 fps, 45 megapixel still images, and image stabilization capable of 8 stops of recovery, the R5 is the elusive dream camera....at least on paper.

The best settings for shooting photo and video with the Canon EOS R5

The Canon EOS R5 is a camera that has it all - 8K internal RAW recording, 45 megapixel still images, 4K video at 120 fps, 5 axsis in-body image-stabilization...you really couldn't as for a better camera. As with any camera packed with tons of great features, it can be a little daunting when you first hold the R5 in your hands. Thankfully, we've done all the hard work for our readers during multiple dives with the R5.
