Cracker shots both here and in the linked gallery. I'm assuming Lorraine let you buy a water housing for one of your cameras. Very understanding lady.

Great shots, particularly the first one.

I assume some waterproof enclosure was involved...?

WOW Rob, great shots mate and i am not sure which i like the best as #2 is a beauty, but both great shot mate, watch out for them sharks.LOL as they would have plenty to chew on.LOL

Rob - super cool.

My personal preference is #1. Close-up to the action, colours, it has everything.

Question - how did the guy miss you

When you come to Adelaide in February, I would be keen to link up and have a look at the ewa-marine bag.

fozzie i asked them to get as close as they could and i near shit myself at times cause it looks like i'm gunna die ( looking through the lens ) i have only been out twice with them with the underwater bag so i hope to improve on my panning as they flash by, they are rapped in the photo's which makes me feel good as well.

the d2x,d70,and d200 fit in it but i can only use the 12-24,85 1.4 and the 28-70 ( which i havent used yet ) theres a 200mm limit in the length

bigv
yep they all loved that one and theres a couple of girls learning to kite and one said she cant wait to see some of her when she gets a bit better, well i cant wait either !

cheers rob

Wow!! Stunning shots Rob.
How do you manage to stay afloat carrying the camera? I'm sure I would have drowned getting shots like those.

Well done.
Cheers, Mick

Great shots Rob,

How do you go about removing water from the front of the lens ( outside the bag ) without leaving smear marks on it while your in the water? Surely your hands are wet also.

Cheers

Insane shots Rob!

it's only 1metre deep !!!!

i do have a problem keeping the lens clear i lost a lot of shots when there's water on the lens distorting the subject so maybe have to look into a method of kepping it clear

cheers rob

I have heard that a slice of potato on the perspex is good to keep water off. I have not tried it though. It looks like the Ewa bags have improved as I dont think I would put a good camera in one of the old ones I saw many years ago, obviously they have improved. Great photos

Hi Rob,
Great shots.
How can you make it?
Very exciting.
Cheers
