Learn how to build an inexpensive waterproof housing for your camera that allows you to take high-quality underwater photos. All you need are a couple store-bought items, and a splash of imagination!
Here are some quick tips to remember when using amateur underwater housing for your camera.
- Shoot in bright light (the harsher the better).
- Shoot as wide as you can (since water magnifies).
- Shoot as close as you can (since water’s never 100% clear).
