Before putting on your diving suit, you should know 3 tips for taking your photos underwater:
- Bet on quality photography equipment, otherwise the photos will look blurry and unsharp. A good formula is underwater housings, you add them to your traditional compact camera and they optimize exposure, color and autofocus.
- Practice with your underwater casing, in a pool for example, and shoot. This way, when you are under the sea you will already know which are the best shots. You can also make videos underwater.
- Get as close as you can to the main subject of your photograph, so your snapshots will come out sharper. You can take underwater photos up to 40 meters deep.
