I have seen your underwater photos and, as a diver myself, let me say you've taken some great shots and been to a lot of great diving spots. However, though I'm not any expert and after many experiments with a Motor Marine II (from Sea & Sea, 35 mm), I'd say your pictures lack a good white balance, saturation and definition (too much grain). The first ones can be fixed (sort of) in post-editing (and it'll be worth it). To reduce grain in your pictures, try an inferior ISo speed (100 or less) when taking the shots; though you'll have less light to work with, they'll definetly improve in definition, especially in macro. In wide, I found 100 Asa to work just fine, even though, in some circumstances, I have to play with the flash and the aperture to decently illuminate the subject and get a deep blue background.
Well, keep up the good work and enjoy your fantastic dives. |
