Sorry to sound anal, but some shouldn’t give advice when they don’t know what they are talking about. Sounds like to many beers to me, do you suffer from blackouts as well?Īnd, “When you use something once or twice a year, it tends to get dicey.” You also say “as I have a problem remembering what I did between when I did it and the film comes back” Does EV mean anything to you? (exposure value) Now I’m laughing my a$$ off, faster film requires less light, 400iso/asa is 2f-stops different than 100 iso/asa or the shutter speed difference of 2 per sec. The faster film needed more light, which the flash and ambient couldn't supply unless I was really close.

I've taken many surprisingly good photos with just my Reefmaster and no external strobe. For what you are asking for, the Reefmaster is what you want. Without light you will never produce decent photos.įorget anything with the Nikonos name on it.unless your either filthy rich or really serious about underwater photography. Just remember one thing, light is everything in underwater photography, so look at the best strobe, speed light or flash (what ever you want to call it) you can afford.
