ISO is the black sheep of exposure settings. For many new photographers it can be difficult to understand what the setting is and what it does. We hope that this article will be a source of enlightenment (pun intended) for those of you wondering what you should do with your ISO setting when taking underwater photos.

Finally a Phase Detect Hybrid Auto Focus System from Panasonic!
The Pansonic Lumix S5II and S5IIX are two of the most exciting camera announcements from Panasonic in years. They are the first two Panasonic models designed with a phase detection autofocus system - modernizing a brand that has been overlooked in the past for its autofocus limitations. Both full-frame cameras are identical, but the S5IIX is equipped with additional features for video like ProRes and All-Intra recording.
