Aquatic Photography Primer 101 WIP

So I have been asked so many times how I do what I do when I take pictures so I decided to write a short article that has become not so short.:crazy:

I had this as an exclusive on another site but they couldn't seem to understand a joke or tongue in cheek commentary so I have opened it up for all to see.

Awesome, thank you for sharing your hard earned info. I knew I needed a DSLR! Quick question, I have a slight tremor in my hands and any photo I take without a tripod ends up looking like a 60's concert poster. Are the cameras with an anti vibration feature actually effective?

If you have tremors you have 2 options get the light up high enough to overcome that with shutter speed or go with some sort of stabilazition in the lens or the body. As I get deeper into the article the fault of slowing down the auto focus that stabilization does is not a problem as I will show, since I do not use auto focus. So a stabilized camera or one with it in the lens which is better will be a + for you.

I think I will actually touch on this in the first part of the article about when selecting a camera thanks for the idea.
