SeaLife's Compact Photo/Video Rig Packs a Punch
SeaLife introduced the Sea Dragon system this past fall with the release of three new lights, one strobe and the Flex-Connect grip system. This lighting system is the perfect companion to SeaLife’s popular DC-1400 and with the Flex-Connect grip and arms it’s effortless to switch configurations depending on whether you’d like to shoot photo or video. The lights boast 1200 and 2000 lumens in compact bodies, complete with battery level indicator lights, three power modes and 100 degree beam.

Thinking Outside the Box to Capture Stunning Macro Detail
By Rico Besserdich
Thinking Outside the Box to Capture Stunning Macro Detail
Macro is arguably the most popular underwater photography category, attracting divers in all corners of the globe.
Classic underwater macro photography has its own styles, techniques and objectives. We have all seen the great images produced with these techniques, but sometimes the images start to look very similar to each other, especially after the 100th pygmy seahorse or frogfish photo. This is when the desire to shoot different macro images begins to grow in u/w shooters’ hearts.

Exploring Fabled Reefs & Visiting Resorts on Assignment for Bluewater Travel

Exploring Fabled Reefs & Visiting Resorts on Assignment for Bluewater Travel
Cozumel has a reputation as a world-class dive destination and ranks high on many U.S. divers’ wish lists. I love adventure and wide-angle photography, so when the opportunity came to visit a few resorts and shoot underwater photos on behalf of Bluewater Travel, I jumped at the opportunity. The plan was to visit 4 resorts in 7 days and dive as much as possible around a busy work schedule.

First in Industry: Built-in Optical TTL Converter MDX-D7100 Housing & Nikon D7100 Camera Review for Underwater Photography
By Mike Bartick
First in Industry: Built-in Optical TTL Converter MDX-D7100 Housing & Nikon D7100 Camera Review for Underwater Photography
After 5 years of solid and reliable use of my Nikon D300 and D300s camera & housing systems, I finally decided it was time for an upgrade. The new addition to the family would need to be a step up in capabilities and not just an increase in pixels. The choice wasn’t an easy one, as I have been holding out for the “New D400” or the next generation in the Prosumer Nikon camera lineup that isn’t full frame.
