Grote monitor, extra accuduur, grote knoppen, vacuümcontrole, handvatten en de mogelijkheid om extra lenzen te gebruiken bij je Gopro....dat is een nutshell wat dit onderwaterhuis allemaal toevoegt aan je GoPro! Deze behuizing maakt van de GoPro HERO 12, 11, 10 of 9 dus de ultieme onderwater videocamera.

The new G7X Mark III has been introduced.  We have the Ikelite housing in stock already. We expect the Nauticam housing within a couple of days now. The Fantasea underwater housing will be available in november 2019.

I'm almost ready for it ... at least I think so. Tomorrow I am leaving to Tenerife with my buddy Ron Offermans to participate in the Underwater Photography World Championship. We first planned a few practice days to explore the conditions in Tenerife. The World Championship starts on Tuesday, September 17. Exciting again!

Mit einem externen Blitz können Sie bessere Unterwasserfotos machen. Schönere Farben, mehr Kontrast, weniger Schwebstoffe. Sie haben wahrscheinlich bereits eine Unterwasserkamera und möchten ein Blitzgerät dazu haben. Aber ...für welchen Blitz soll man sich nun entscheiden? Marco Heesbeen von Onderwaterhuis.NL hilft Ihnen dabei, den richtigen Blitz zu finden.

For well exposed underwater photos you need one or even two external strobe(s). Every advanced underwater photographer knows. But why? Let's explain.

To begin with: the built-in flash of your underwater camera is just the wrong place for underwater photography. With the light from the built-in flash you not only illuminate your subject,  

Shooting a fish portrait is often a matter of patience. And arm cramps...

Location
This photo was taken at Swanee Rock in the sea of Cortez in Mexico, also called the Gulf of California. It was my entry for the fish portrait category in the CMAS world championship underwater photography 2017 in La Paz.

Of course you can use the program mode under water and for macro or wide angle, when diving or snorkeling with an Olympus Tough. You can also simply fine-tune the white balance yourself.

Set the camera to P or A to adjust the white balance yourself. With a click on OK you open the menu on the right and bottom. Then select the white balance icon. If you choose "white balance with one key", you can register a white balance yourself by pressing the INFO button.

Many underwater photographers use a wide-angle lens on their camera. There are wet wide-angle lenses that can be placed on an underwater housing. There are also wide-angle lenses for your camera. A different port on the underwater housing is required for these cameras. Why a wide-angle lens? Let's explain it.

A general rule for underwater photography is: "Get close to your subject!".

Back home and at the office after our visit to the DEMA show in Orlando, Florida. The DEMA show is the world's largest diving fair especially for suppliers of all kinds of diving equipment.
All major brands and suppliers that focus on underwater photography and video were represented. It was the 3rd time we visited this show now. And it was worth it!
Many new products! It was a pleasure meeting our contacts in business personally again. To review and discuss new products together.
