Who photographs underwater with what? I would like to hear opinions and feedback ...
There is hardly a rare tourist who has been on vacation in Egypt who has not photographed the magnificent fauna of the Red Sea, has not admired the beauties of underwater landscapes ... Buying decent waterproof photographic equipment in the conditions of Egypt itself, according to my observations, is unrealistic! What to buy?

The offers of online stores include a number of photographic equipment manufactured by Olympus, Canon, Sony, Samsung, Pentax. What to choose? filming ... And the range of prices, respectively, from 100 to 600 USD.

I bought a waterproof case for my digital camera, the photos turn out so-so, besides, once when closing, the strap got stuck and the camera got wet. At home, the camera was barely revived.

and I bought a good waterproof case and everything is in order - it costs about $ 100

canon 550 D and aqua-box - just amazing photos, I guarantee! :)))
аватар Katyyy
because in fact, no locally bought one will give a high-quality photo in all its manifestations.

I have a Pentax S50 with aquabox. The pictures seem to be nothing, only the battery under water eats very quickly.

I wonder what about real "amphibians"? Which is better - Canon D10 or Olympus 6-8 series? (Sony FT3 - we don't take it, the price is exorbitant under 600 USD) I have a serious "ground" digital camera (Sony TX 7), but for 2 years I have not found an aquabox for it either on the Internet, or in Ukraine, or in Egypt ....

A SONY MPK-THJ box is suitable for your camera, it costs $ 280, you can buy it, if this price suits you, they are.
аватар Katyyy
look on e-bay, it will be cheaper there. We buy all oversized equipment there. Although, maybe you are looking there

I'm sorry, I have a DSC-H7, (it will be a little more abruptly) "not standard" ... On ebay, no ....

Guys! The main thing is not to be fooled by the cover! Fork out for the cheapest fotik - everything is better! Maybe my hands are not from there, but almost nothing happened in this "polyethylene", everything was smeared ... porridge ... The miser pays twice - I was convinced. Someday I'll get together and post the best of the worst. In a case, shooting at 90% will not work!

Cover = gamno = disposable camera bought at the entrance to the pier or in the old city.
From amphibians, I am for kenon d10 (I personally sympathize with kenons).
The best and most expensive option is G10-12 (again, kenon) and an underwater box. The price of the box is about 70% of the price of the camera.
Choose :)

sorry... boxes are already a little cheaper... but the approach/price principle is described above.

Check out this thread, it's been discussed there.

"Which is better - Canon D10 or Olympus 6-8 series?"
It's a question of "faith" :))) From the series Windows VS Linux, Nvida VS Radeon, Intel VS AMD, etc.
If for snork, and even there is "ground" photographic equipment, then I think it's better to buy an "amphibian" and not bother.

I used to shoot on film with an aquacase. Now there is a number.
It's easier to take a ready-made thread cheaply. For example, this http://www.easy-mart.ru/shop/category/product/95-fototehnika/460-5-mpiks-vodonepronitsaemaya-3m- tsifrovaya-kamera
5 megapixels underwater is enough for an amateur.

to katyyy: Did you shoot with the camera you recommend? Where is the photo then, show it? Why do you get into literally every question on all branches, having absolutely no idea about the essence of the issue? - I doubt), then please tell me: the average price for Canon 550 and aquaboxes for it (various manufacturers), the price for frames, brackets, additional light, fish-eye lenses, etc. You see, a person who does not have ANY of his own feedback on the site, not a single photo, advises EVERYTHING to EVERYONE in ANY AREA, in my opinion .... - a "dummy" that has never been anywhere, but tries to earn pluses on the branches with the number of "correct" (pulled from other branches) comments and answers ... Are you aiming for the "experts of the year"? Well, well ...
аватар Katyyy
and good morning again, Nikolai :)) Why did you suddenly wake up so late? Two days ago, my messages here did not cause you doubts, when suddenly "hello" :)) Why would? And from the fact that you read your favorite branch and get very angry. But, I will treat you with understanding.
By the way, I do not lose hope that you will still cope with the Internet and find the cost of this camera and additional equipment for it. :) It's a shame for such a smart uncle not to have the elementary skill of communicating with the cobweb.

On our own experience, we tried Kenon-610+ German case (I don’t remember exactly the type of Avemarin) We shot for the first time in my life - we were satisfied with the result. I don’t feel sorry for the film - they swam and re-shot it, and in video mode, not everything was smooth - practice is needed. Although this is a matter of money and prospects: how many times in your life is it planned to use f / a at a price of 400-600 USD? My husband and I answered ourselves - the package will remain for hiking and rafting and rains. Although to be honest - without a package under water it is much easier - but much more expensive ... When they teach me, I will insert pictures from Al Nabila

I take a picture with an ordinary soap dish in a case, the photo is certainly not super! I want a normal fotik and learn how to take a picture like Marina Kochetova http://www.photogeek.ru/blog/2178.html!!!!!
