I have never actually attempt to try out underwater photography. Firstly, I don’t have the equipment to do so. Secondly, given a choice I would not want my camera to go down a few metres under water. But I do admire people who have the courage to do it, and their pictures turn out amazing. Basically, for underwater photography, a custom set of settings is needed to shoot underwater as the environment down below doesn’t allow the camera to automatically give a comfortable setting. In addition, a light source must be needed to shoot underwater as it tends to get very dark at the bottom of the sea bed especially when you want to photograph sea creatures of plants.
