Underwater Photography Equipment
There are many factors to consider when choosing underwater photography equipment. The choices range from single unit digital cameras, such as the Olympus Stylus SW
Series (see previous blog post) to high end professional systems that are quite expensive.
These professional systems usually incorporate a 35mm digital camera with a housed system and several lenses (such as a 20mm wide angle lens, 60mm macro lens, and 105mm macro lens) as well as lighting equipment, including a strobe (such as the Sea & Sea YS-110A) arms, and a TTL (Thru The Lens) slave sensor.
Most professionals use underwater photography equipment that can be used with a diver and thus, can go to depths much greater than those meant for recreational water sports, such as snorkeling. however, many of the single unit cameras can be adapted to be usable at greater depths with the addition of a specialized.
Although when you combine the cost of these little single unit digital cameras with the cost of an additional housing for the use at greater depths, it gets a little pricey, it is still much, much less than the cost of the higher-end 35mm digital underwater photography equipment total kit. These little cameras take beautiful photographs and are just as nice whether they are being used on land or underwater.
Price point is a major factor in deciding which underwater photography equipment to buy. The next logical factor is output; how do the images look?
Which equipment will give you the best results? That depends. What are you going to use the images for? Are you taking vacation/recreational shots? Do you want to photograph fish and sealife or underwater landscapes? If you want to take underwater close-ups than a 20mm lens is much better than a 105mm lens, for example.
The final piece of underwater photography equipment that should be considered, but is often overlooked, is computer software for, “post-production” such as Adobe Photoshop. Light hits the camera lens differently when passing through water (as opposed to air.)
This is like having a blue-green filter on the camera. The deeper you go in water, the more increased the effect is, because it is more difficult for the light to pass through more water. There are ways to compensate for this both straight from the camera, to adding a filter, to color correcting the image in Photoshop.
However you choose to adjust your images, using underwater photography equipment will bring a new dimension to your collection of photos.
Olympus Stylus SW Accessories
I found some really great accessories for the Olympus Stylus 1030 SW (and other models) camera. Okay, so you bought this great little underwater camera and it is waterproof, but not drop proof.
Imagine enjoying the water and oops… you drop it… and watch it sink to the bottom. All you can do is watch it drift further and further – ten, 20, 30 feet down… Bummer.
Well, I did some research and found an inexpensive solution. I call it a little life preserver for the Olympus Stylus 1030 SW (Stylus 720 SW, 770 SW, 790 SW, 850 SW, Olympus Stylus 1050 SW, and others.)
You can see a picture of it on the left. Its called, “Olympus Floating Strap” and it wraps around your wrist.
You attach it to the camera and voila! Your camera and investment are safe. I found a great deal on a five piece accessory kit that contains the strap as well as spare Li-50B Li-Ion Battery and additional backup, padded soft camera case Precision design, and a 5 piece lens cleaning kit.
This is all you need to capture your vacation – both in digital images and video. Having a back-up battery is also one of the main accessories I suggest everyone has in their camera kit.

Olympus Stylus 1030SW
Wow – I love this camera! The Olympus Stylus 1030SW is an underwater digital camera – really!
It is also shock resistant, although I don’t plan on testing that claim.
If you are looking for a, “Grab-n-go” easy camera to take on vacations, or just to have on hand, this is the one.

As the name suggests, you get ten megapixels and a shock and water resistant camera. Oh, did I mention, it even takes videos. Can you imagine taking a simple to use camera with you on vacation, deciding to go snorkeling, and just grab the camera and voila, you have images and video of pretty little fishies swimming by. The beauty of this camera is you don’t have to worry about taking it out in the elements.
Even if you don’t intend to go underwater, I suggest purchasing this camera. If you are by a pool or beach where water and sand is splashed/blown around, your camera is protected. If it suddenly rains, or even snows, you’re good.

Camera Reviews
What types of cameras are you interested in reading reviews on?
Photography is a vast subject and there are many varieties of photographic cameras.
Examples of cameras are digital, film, SLR, digital slr, underwater, disposable, etc. Professional and entry level professional digital slr cameras are popular now for many reasons. Although there are many “point and shoot” cameras that do a great job of capturing the perfect image also.
There are many things to consider when trying to find out what camera is best for you. First consider what the purpose for the camera is. Are you going to take pictures of family gatherings? Will this piece of equipment be used as part of a new hobby?
Photography is a wonderful hobby. In fact, many professional photographers started out with photography as a hobby. They soon realized they had a talent for it, and loved it. One thing led to another and their hobby became a nice outlet for extra income or even a full time career! And it all began with that first camera they picked up.
Many people find cameras become more important in their life when big changes happen. For example, getting married, or having a baby, awakes the desire to capture memories in print (or digitally, of course.) One of my favorite categories for the need of a camera is vacation.
The needs for a camera to take on vacation are different from other purposes. A camera that would work well on vacation has features such as:
small size
lightweight
easy to operate
waterproof
shock resistant
photo/video
One of my favorite “vacation” cameras is the olympus stylus 1030sw, although there are newer versions of this model. This camera, although perfect for vacation, is also a great camera to have handy laying around the house. It takes video and still photos. The price point of the Olympus Stylus series makes them a great camera to have as a general purpose item. Keep it on a shelf, or even in your purse, to capture those unexpected moments that bring joy to our lives.
If you want more control with the creativity aspect of taking photos, then an slr, or single lens reflex, camera may be what you are looking for. You can still get them in film formats such as 35 mm. However, the popular models being produced today are digital slr cameras. It is important to understand how they operate when choosing a brand. They are not all alike. Once you choose a brand, the next thing to consider is the lens. With slr cameras you can buy separate lenses to accommodate your project. For example, if you are doing portrait photography, you will probably want a fixed length lens, at 85mm. Brand becomes important when purchasing lenses, because it is all about the quality of glass.
Whatever your needs, there is a model that should be right for you. Camera reviews are an important step in the buying process in order to get the best fit for your lifestyle.
