Ultimate Guide to Shooting Videos and Photos Underwater

Shooting photos underwater is for many photographers the ultimate challenge.

It can be frustrating and mesmerizing at the same time.

Photos created this way are a window for the broader public into ocean depths and best photos capture the mystery and beauty of that world.

In order to be good at taking underwater photos, you need to hone your diving and swimming skills.

When it comes to the technique itself, understanding lighting may be the biggest factor that will determine the quality of your photos.

Whenever possible, try to use natural illumination.

Key Takeaways:

  • If you shoot more than 30 meters deep, it is advisable to invest in good lighting.
  • Dual handheld grips are the most commonly used tool for stabilization underwater.
  • For camera housing, use silica gel packs to absorb heat and moisture.
