Normally, you have no signal underwater, so you only share footage and stories after the dive. With the DiveVolk SeaLink, your smartphone can stay connected while you’re below the surface. You place your phone in a dedicated DiveVolk underwater housing, connected by a cable (up to about 30 m / 98 ft) to a floating surface communication unit with a SIM card. As long as there is mobile coverage above water, live streaming and real-time data use become possible during the dive.

The team at UWCamerastore.com wishes you happy holidays and above all good health and happiness in 2026, with time for the things that matter to you. Hopefully many enjoyable dives and fine underwater images!

The holiday seasonn brings cold-water dives, warm drinks afterwards, and gift giving. If you need a practical gift for an underwater photo or video user, accessories and starter sets can suit many budgets and experience levels.

Good lighting with external strobes is essential in underwater photography. Since many modern mirrorless and DSLR cameras no longer have a built-in flash, photographers use flash triggers and TTL converters to enable firing their strobes in perfect sync at any depth.

Finding a suitable gift for an underwater photographer can be challenging. Equipment, housings and accessories often depend on individual setups. A gift voucher is a practical option that lets the recipient choose exactly what they need, whether that’s a new port, lighting accessory or replacement part.

We were honored to welcome Mr. Edward Lai, founder and CEO of Nauticam, who travelled all the way from Hong Kong together with Phoebe Lu to join us for this special event.

If you shoot underwater macro, you probably know the dilemma:
You’ve got a 90 mm or 105 mm macro lens, which is great for shy subjects, but sometimes you wish you had the wider, more forgiving look of a 60 mm macro, without swapping lenses mid-dive.
That’s exactly where the Nauticam MFO-3 Macro Wet Lens comes in.
