I have the very basic Sea Life Reefmaster. It's a little camera that cost about 250 I think. I've had it about a year and have become increasingly frustrated with my photos. I like the cameras simplicity and ease of use and small size. I have been telling myself I can't expect amazing things from a starting model and even more importantly, I have felt the problem was probably me needing to get better skills with the camera and diving. But still, I've been frustrated. Many dark and poor images. I've done a bit over 100 dives, most of which were in poor light and vis conditions.
So this last week I did a test. I borrowed my hubby's underwater Iphone case which he uses and my friends GoPro. I shot the same stills with these and my sealife. Hubby's were better lighting though some were blurry. GoPro were markedly better.
I don't understand. I have always understood Sealife is better for stills, GoPro for video. I did borrow a DC 1400 once and didn't have hugely better pictures. Also wasn't crazy about the larger size. But maybe that would be better? Maybe a GoPro is a better option for me?
Id if really appreciate any thoughts or information from you awesome people 😊
