Underwater photography is the process of taking photographs while underwater. It is usually done while scuba diving, but can be done while snorkeling or swimming.
Overview
Underwater photography is extremely challenging due to the difficulty of capturing the image of a moving object, such as a fish, while the photographer is also moving, while also considering other factors like limited visibilty due to suspended particles. Many of the "rules" of photography still apply underwater but they must be used with some thought. A lot of advice can be found in scuba magazines and underwater photo web sites.
For those beginning underwater photography, an inexpensive waterproof disposable camera can be used. These are identical to their land-based cousins, but are housed in a rigid waterproof shell. Care should be taken to check the maximum depth rating on cameras before undertaking a dive, as many cannot withstand the high pressure from deeper dives. Disposable cameras with maximum depths of only 10-18m are common. More serious photographers use a regular camera with a special watertight housing. These cameras have the advantage of being able to withstand greater depths, and are also re-usable, however the housing rarely allows the full functions of the camera to be accessed. Either film or digital cameras can be used. Some specialised cameras have an underwater mode that change the features, operation, or interface of the camera for underwater use.
